Not an uprated mount brom, the actual mounting bracket on the bottom of the gearbox that links the rubber mount to the tunnel. Obviously the 4x4 and 2wd std gearbox mounting brackets won't line up a T5 in a 4x4 shell, so for the time being just to get the car rolling and driving ( very gently) , I have had to put a bit of box section steel inbetween the 2wd mount and the 4x4 chassis pick ups,.which works but I can't see it coping well with the power, so I want a decent mount that fits properly, hopefully the part I have from ford will do the job as it is meant to fit a T5 into a 4x4 shell
On a seperate note, if I give you a 4x4 rear beam to do your conversion on, is it a pain in the arse to make it take a 7.5" diff, or is it easier to give you a 2wd one?
the have spacers as standard on the gearbox mount anyway
i will mod your beam you tight cooont !!!!!!!
