Just a word of appreciation for Liam4R4SPARES. A while ago I posted on this forum a cry for help seeking a replacement drive shaft for my GTL and Liam picked it up and sent me a second hand shaft in excellent condition pretty much immediately, and at an unbeatable price. Thank you Liam, and anyone else out there in a fix, get in touch with Liam who Im sure will be able to help you out.
Only trouble is, like an idiot I misdiagnosed my problem!!! Yes, the driveshaft was knackered and very much on its last legs, but that was not what was causing the symptoms. Extensive fiddling over the weekend has now identified the trouble as a broken gearbox mounting, right on the front of the car. Any ideas how I deal with this? The rubber has completely detached causing the gearox and engine to drop down by about 1cm onto a metal flange thingy. Could this have done permanent damage elsewhere? Can I replace the mounting without removing the gearbox? Where can I get a replacement? Liam? Help!!!!
