C4 Beam Plates

Definitely an improvement if you have ever removed a Transmission and noticed the countersunk area around each of the two forward and two rearward C4 Beam Bolts. This indicates the compression load on the aluminum is too concentrated without the use of a much larger washer (top and bottom Forward and Rearward).

The "Washer" (C4 Beam Plates) not only offer a larger area spreading the bolt tensile loads but the C4 Beam Plates are stiffened so they do not flex themselves

(or Five Stars).
