I'm interested to see some pics of how people mount their engines and gearboxes in offroad cars.
Do you solid mount them?
Where do you support the front of the tranny (kombi boxes)? Do you use a Berg style front mount? Do you have 3 supports? nosecone, belhousing and
engine? or just nosecone and engine?
customs kombi box kit and i made up engine mounts in the cage which is part of the roll cage
nothing moves at all more than its supposed to with the standard engine mounts that is
I'll have a dig at ya Terry.....were'd ya race it last?
As for the Offroad race buggies I've seen that are running Kombi boxes, yes they are solid mounted, and yes with 3 mounts.

Or you could use one of the best kits on the market and do it right......lol :P
Funny how this grows 
does the welding meet Au/ns 1554 ?
looks good mate > even from my house ! & glad you cleaned your desk up its well over due !
I like that design, it dosen't use the engine mounting bolts to secure it.How much are you asking for those? You need to put them on your web
site.

what does the front mount weld onto?
i think it's set up for a tubular frame chassis

I will tell you when they come back from Unique metal work just down the road from Chris .
as my Mate owns the place .
are these for mounting kombi boxes or beetle ones?. cos kombi ones are wider arent they?
Anthony
Found these on The Samba
This is your style mount isn't it Desert Moose

there are lots of these in the EMPI catalog...
what they actually fit I'm not too sure....
A lot of work in that one shown...
someone has a jig or two....

Some nice work on display here, but if you are just looking for a kit to retain Beetle box in a standard chassis for, say, under 120hp at the wheels,
I have a 'two-strap' one here... is it worth $50?
Collect from Hornsby
I'll try an get a pic later

Looks like a good setup to me.
Could be good in my buggy
.
where did you find that pic?
I got it from http://www.shoptalkforums.com/index.php Mick H posted
the site previously. I can't find the exact link(it's a seperate site from inside one of the posts).
From what I can gather these mounts are made by http://www.mckenzies.com/ (I think
moose imports them, Not sure) site is a pain as it dosn't show any pictures.
