Re: Pa's Ute

Thanks Scott and Blacky! I think I've got it right. It just looks funny because I could only get one bolt in that goes through the box. I must be putting too much tension on the mount or it might have been inferior. Either way I got a new one today and will try again this weekend. Thanks gents.

Re: Pa's Ute

It was bugger of a job to line it up Blacky. I didn't think it was meant to be that difficult? Anyway I'm checking out an EK tomorrow morning to see if I've got things right i.e. bracket up the right etc.

Rear Engine Mount Bolts

Are they all the same size 3/8" - 24 x 3 3/4" as per Page 66 in parts book? So they are all around 9.5cm long? Seems too long? Thanks.
