to be more exact (inc vat)

1827.23 top mount £52.21
1844.25 top mount buffer £17.34
1844.68 gearbox mount £39.23

Thumbs up


When South wales (Cardiff) Peugeot tax was applied I ended up as
Top 60
buffers 19
The bit on the top of the mount that prevents vertical movement 8quid
and gearbox 45!!!!
I was like ARE YOU SUPER SERIAL?
Yes yes they were.
Suffice to say i've ordered the top mount bits for now. Will sort the gearbox one out at a later date.
89 quid of parts just to sort the top mount :S

At this rate the only conversion route you'll be going down is the LPG one when all the oil in the world runs out LOL

    Did this yesterday and it was a royal pain in the ass. After a bit of positive talk from Deepak over the phone It was sorted though.
    Basically took absolutely ages to line the engine back up to fit the cradle back om afterwards.
    Seems like one of those jobs that takes 20 minutes or 1.5 hours depending on luck
    Good news is that i fitted new buffers and a new bumpstop for the top of the Mount too.
    The gap for the chassis seems bigger now though so i may have to make a second chock for the rear.

    First thing i noticed is no shake when starting and slowing down with the gears and flooring it are much less worrying too.

    Turned out the rubber was knackered and the bottom part of the mount that touches the washer was cracked
    Luckily the chassis looked tiptop so all good now Smile
