Gearbox mount
 

Chap,

I'm not overly happy with my gearbox mount quite a bit of movment in the rubber block and because I've lifted the engine quite high for max clearance the box should probably be raised a bit. I'm toying with making a bracket with bobbins on either side, do you think exhaust type bobbins would be up to the job?? The bracket would be compressing the bobbin not stretching it.

Hi Jimmy,

i fitted my engine & box last week & know what you are saying as i thought the same...............but a fellow kitcar owner/mate came to look at my build & i asked him the same sort of question......

he said that once the propshaft is bolted in place it should reduce the movement at that end of the gearbox.

i,m not sure if this is true but it seems logical i suppose.

cheers
