Do you put the midmount directly against the gearbox casing or against the lower nuts with another set of nuts?

If you mount it directly against the casing won't it inrease your chances of oil leaks? I am aware of the need to fit longer studs.

Bizarre

Does this sit further forward on the gear box than the Berg mount?

Cheers

Bizzare are those studs which fit the cradle flush against the gearbox casing?

They look like cap head allen bolts.

Do you have any problems with oil leaks?
