Mid mounted gearbox support


Hi, bought a gearbox support that bolts to the middle section of the gearbox a while back. Was going to fit it this week but have forgotten how I weld the section to the forks and for the life mod me cannot work out how it will bolt to the car.
Can anyone help explain it with a picture please?

Thanks Bizarre but mine is a lot shorter and the rubber doesn't have bolts both sides' only one bolt which has me beat.

It depends how many posts you have displayed to a page - it is on page 2 when I look at it on my computer Barry.

Here is a photo of mine - slightly different mounts, but basically the same.

Yeah both of these sit-ups have the bar past the outside of the forks but mine only just reach the outside. The hole is under the fork.l

Hi

I've seen some that don't have any weld on bits, they just have a bump stop that hits the fork under power.

Only a partial pic but you get the idea. I have the mounts separate if yours didn't come with any

I made up a couple of shims to put under the rubber so it was hard up against the frame horns all the time when I had mine mounted like that, I have since made up a new weld in one.
