Gearbox mount fitting

#1 Post by kehoemj »

Hi

Can anyone quickly confirm the gearbox mount is not fitted correctly. I think the gearbox should be jacked up higher so the plate is snug to the mount.

Can't really tell from the photo but I think you have the mount upside down or mounted to the wrong side of the crossmember, here's mine from my resto thread:

Thanks. You're right. Fitted to the wrong side of the cross member.
