Hello, i'm looking for a nosecone, or full gearbox if won't separate, for an L bug IRS gearbox. The nose cone is the one with 3 bolts for the front gearbox mount. Pick up from the Gold Coast/Brisbane area.

Thanks for any help.

are you after the actual cup or just the rubber thing cause you old one is shagged out??
or both cause you are converting sonething else??

I STRONGLY reccomend the semi-solid Berg mount method if the old one is shagged
The new rubber blocks are useless after about 2 months

Here's my problem:

I have a '76 irs pan which has the L Bug front gearbox mount, I have the mount, but now need to change the nose cone on the gearbox to fit.

If you can, get some angle iron and fab something - the L-Bug mount is crap

OK - if this is your problem i recommend doing the Berg mount





As said - he L bug mount is crap
What is worse isthe the new replacement is WOEFULL!!

The Berg mount is "shaken not stirred" but if you are after a good handling car then this is what you want

Other wise i will pull my front mount off and yo can have it for a price
It is all of 2 months old and as loppy as ...................... hmmm this is a family show
It is as use full as tits on a bull

So the berg mount actually welds to the frame horns and bolts around the gearbox. Does it then make the front mount redundant? I got the bolt on type with the gearbox, one of these:


Would that do the job or still go for the berg mount, and if so, how much are they and where can i get one.

Thanks for your help by the way.

Still looking if anyone can help.
