The reason the box had a new mount made off the chassis leg is to keep the engine and box level. Buy a kit off the shelf and it'll be on the piss

Lower mount from Garry.m on rally Reg was 65, machined be hubs 50, washers for hubs, 20, torque link for lower mount was 20, 2 wheel bearings 40. Then got upper mount made and drive shaft adjusted by Martin.
Ok interesting, ill definitely need something shorter than that. Is yours 'on the piss' though? I'd rather do it properly if I'm honest and get Colin's mount fitted to make sure it's sitting level

They are hub centric mate so no really issue with them, nice and light too. They are 5.7kg including paint and spacer, compared to my pro race 1.2's which are 7.5kg per wheel. So a decent saving of 1.8kg per wheel. If you multiply that by 4 that's alot of weight off the drivetrain

Lol Matt! Yeah I've been told that before, I'm assuming if Colin's made the new mount that means there's no way to get it flat without some fabrication work? As I said above I'd rather do a proper job that have it on the piss of I'm honest lol

Yep but requires chassis fabrication, in which case I might as well go for Colin's kit tbh. And while I'm at it he might as well chuck his front suspension kit on it too. Has he finalised the rear suspension kit yet?

Yep I assumed that was the only way to do it. In which case I might as well do a proper job on it and get Colin to put in his BE mounting kit I reckon

Yep mainly the clutch being so heavy that cracked the casing we believe - wont be a problem with the lighter cover plate, and BE box over winter
