Default Rear Transmission Mount

I have a 2006 Saturn Vue 2.2L engine 4 speed auto transmission. I am having trouble finding the correct mount. All of the parts stores are showing A3040 but when I measured the bolt hole spacing, it was too small. Is there another mount out there that I don't know about? I have searched and found nothing, The bolt hoes are in a triangle and the the 2 at the base are 2 3/4" on center and the single hole is 5" from each base hole on center.

Is this what you're looking for? Don't ask me for measurements because I DON'T know. https://g.co/kgs/Z75DKzN

RockAuto lists the DEA/Marmon Ride Control A5861 as the rear transmission mount, but give no dimensions, price $19.88. AutoZone shows this identical part number available, so you may ask your local AutoZone if you can measure it. BUT DON'T BUY IT THERE! The list price at AutoZone is $181.99!

No, that is not it. It looks exactly like the A3040. I am now beginning to wonder if the one that was sent me was wrong and the A3040 is correct. I have asked for a seller on Ebay to send me the measurements but they have not responded. Thanks for you help!

I saw that one and pulled up a site that gave the outside dimensions. It seems very close to what I have. It still did not provide the hole dimensions but I am not out that much for the part. Thanks for your help.

Your VUE has three transmission mounts. I have not found the mount that hides in the frame rail under the battery tray. The transmission front and rear mounts are everywhere.

There are two different parts listed for your VUE with the same part number

This mount appears to be the one you describe, Napa says it fits both manual and automatic 2.2 VUE.

The black Napa mount I listed appears to be the front transmission mount for a Honda powered VUE. The Honda V6 VUEs only have two transmission mounts, a front and a rear. Your VUE has three transmission mounts. One bolts to the top of the transmission and goes through the driver’s side frame rail. This mount supports the load. The other two just dampen the twist from on and off the throttle. I cannot locate the mount that goes through the frame rail.
