Bus auto trans fitment


Last year I fitted a Bus auto to a 71 Bay.Fabbed a new front trans mount keeping the trans as close to the torsion bar tube as possible.Used a standard manual trans rear top mount-but had to seriously modify the body frame to make it work.Needed to move the 2 mounting plates in the body rearwards 45mm.Thought it must have been a body year thing.I am now doing another auto trans into a 76 Bay and it's the same.This model came with auto transmissions,so it should be straight forward.I measured the 3 Bus auto's I have here from various models-and they are all exactly the same length.Does anybody have any pics of the front rubber mount and the top rear cradle from an auto Bay? I have never been under one with an auto from the Factory.

Found the trouble. Borrowed a workshop manual and found a pic of the original front mount. Went thru all my secondhand parts and found an og front mount.It fits like a glove.Always wondered what the strange mount fitted.
