Gearbox Crossmember Fixungs

#1 Post by AlanH »

Just replacing my gearbox mount but looking at the workshop manual it seems there should be some distance tubes which I don't have.

I'm not sure exactly what they are for and I cannot find anybody that sells them.

This looks very similar to the Sprint and Stag cross member mountings.

Try part number 138507 on Paddocks website. Its a spacer and is part of the JPS274P Stag cross member mounting kit.

Hi Alan, The picture looks like an automatic cross-member and gearbox mount. If so the 1976 parts list doesn't list any spacers. The gearbox cross-member is simply hard mounted to the bodywork with 2 nuts and washers for all 1500 / 1850 and Sprint variants. If its an early non-overdrive early 1850 then this does have a series of spacers and rubber bushes on the outer edges with the cotton-reel style gearbox mounts. I can't find a 1300 /1500 variant though.

Alan when I did mine it was just nuts and washers, no spacers as such and that's whats came off it, I didn't lose them. :D

Thanks for the info. guys.

I will just bolt it back on, there is no room for bushes anyway.
