bottom engine mounts

Post by callyboy » Mon Aug 22, 2011 3:33 pm

Was going to put these on today, but cant work out how they go on ! how stupid am I (whats for barrage of posts). One side would appear to have some sort of "aftermarket" addition to it in the way of a welded on bit of tube. Are the spacers supposed to sit inside the recess and have a bolt with a tab thing on the end (also inside the recess) ?

I found this pic when i stripped down (oohh errrr). Its the left side mount. That tab on the end doesnt appear to anything. Has someone just used it as some sort of spacer ?

looking at this drawing, it doesnt even have the spacers. just a bolt and that bolt with a tab on it. Parts 20 and 22.

Yeah. either of those could be a good candidate. I reckon all i need is a bolt and a nut with a tab on it. Bolt goes thru and the nut with the tab goes into the recess on the engine (tab stops the nut spinning round i spose.

Cheers
