scary clunks!

hi all

got a scary noise coming from the old girl, she's saying something about fixing my bloody car and getting it out of the driveway!

in all seriousness, the fb has developed a loud clunk on acceleration, and also going uphill. i thought it may have been the diff centre (tried to change it, but could get an axle out, so i put it back together) but on further thought i reckon it might be a broken gearbox mount. i dont really have a great deal of time to look in the next few days, so has anyone had one before, and does this sound like the case?

cheers all
james

well i got around to sussing things out properly, it's a busted engine mount. cant find any in stock around newcastle, so i've ordered them in, and now i have to spend a week driving the morris!

Good to hear you've sorted it out James... not a hard job to replace the mounts once they come in.

Check out "stutter rap" next time you're on youtube... might help with any qualms about the Morris! :lol:
