hi guys

been very frustrated this evening , trying to change my rubber bush on the lower engine mount , got the brakcet and the old bush out . Then went to put the new one in and it seemed like it was almost to big , so gave it a good old wack a few times and its now wedged in there and all screwed up . could i have the right bush ?

i bought it from euro parts and it says on the packed , rear engine mount :s

any suggestions ?

theye supposed to be pressed in, best bet is take it to someone with a press or use a good vice if you can

they arent meant to move once fitted, hence bing very tight ;)

EDIT- if you get stuck ive got a few lower mounts in good nick for £8 to your door

or upgrade it to a powerflex one fitted mine in about 5mins with now special tools and the engine dont budge, well worth the £30 outlay :)
