Does anyone have a spare donor type 9 gearbox mount lying around, or know a good scrappers that will have them? need one to get my engine in and theyre way overpriced from Ford , especially after being told that my engine mounts + rubbers are going to cost me £85 + VAT :O

Bargain here!!

I've got a new one spare I think

Always worth renewing as the old Sierra ones are usually knackered and really sloppy.

Westfield sell them for about £12. Though don't tell 'em what it's for!

The design is 'slightly' different from the Sierra one, you need to ever so slightly modify the way it mounts to your chassis.

^ westfield was the cheapest i found too

but caterham have the same thing even cheaper

The reson I've got a new sierra one spare is I decided to go for the stiffer 4 speed type one like westfield and caterham use

if you use the 4 speed one you'll need to make up something to hold it (its too narrow for the dax chassis and fits between the rails)
I've got plans for mine, but nothing made yet.....

4 speed one:


sierra/granada one:


and in the dax chassis:

caterham, westfield, they're all the same to me

sorry, yeah, caterham is where i got mine lol wondered why i kept getting the 'caterham life' emails.

Anyone know where I might get a sierra/granada mount online?

4speed one a'la caterham is no good to me

what about your local motorfactors?

(they might call it a rear engine mount)
