Excel SA automatic gearbox

Post by Pete Boole »

Does anyone know where/what the mounting bush came from? It can't be unique to the Excel. Googling the part number gives no hits!!

used on range rover and 3/5/7 BMWs - have you looked there?

Do you need to view one?

Thanks Stu. I'm just fabricating the gearbox mounting bracket for the chassis - I don't want to use an original bush if they are impossible to get later on if it needs replacing. I'll keep searching!

Have a look at the e30 auto mount. It's offset but the rubbers might give you an idea

Hi Pete,

Have you got an actual mount in hand? I can have a look for any markings on mine as it's easily accessible.

Neil.
