[James.f]

looks good

but why are you jacking up the car there tho??

 

[david hodson]

Why does that engine mount bore look worn is it just a casting mark?

 

[the_prophet]

the dogbone mount on the floor?

theres a metal collar inside that usually thats been taken out to fit the powerflex mount. its not worn.

Why does that engine mount bore look worn is it just a casting mark?

I'm guessing its where they have hacked the old rubber out!

 

[david hodson]

yes sorry the mount on the floor just looked a strange shape i take it the bush isnt round then

i would be finishing them wheels soon.

 

[sumner2k3]

next decent day i wil be getting the wheels done, raining at the moment though and i dont have a garage to do them in lol

The car isnt jacked up by there in the photo, the jack is just underneath about 5mm away from the subframe just because i hate going underneath a car like that and that makes me feel that extra bit safer lol
