What gearbox mounts?

[stup86]

All I need now, before the M50 goes in, is a clio servo and some gearbox mounts.

I've been told that I need E30 325i G/B mounts and someone else told me I need some mounts from the E36?!?

Can anyone let me know what mounts I need?

I'm using a ZF gearbox from an E34 525i ('94)

Cheers

The better mounts are E21, bigger/stronger

Where can I get them?

And they are better than what mount?

[DanThe]

BMW E21 gearbox mounts? BMW dealers

Better than the range as the E21 was designed to use 1 mount, where others designed to use 2, so they are naturally stronger

Ah OK.

I just checked realoem and found this:



This is from an 323 (M20) E21.

According to realoem the mount price (each) ranges from $16.27 - $48.58

Are they the ones to get then?

i replaced my broken mounts with some rubber mountings from RS components. a direct swap and only about £4 or something each.

you'll have to measure up first though and choose the size that fits

[DanThe]

They are about £9 each, 10mm studs instead of 8mm

Does anyone know any basic dimensions of the e21 mount?
Mainly hieght of mount, and diameter of the rubber

it's a massively un-user friendly site.
you have to download the pdf datasheets to find the size you want then try and find the part number from the datasheet on the website (you can search for manufacturers part numbers)
