Afternoon folks.
Looking for some advice.
In the process of changing the gearbox mounts & I've hit a problem.
Changed the mounts, Got them all good & tight but here's the problem.
Got the G/box held up by the jack. But when I came to tighten up the nuts that hold the crossmember in place the two "captive" bolts that sit in a channel either side just spin in the channel.
I can get the nuts on a fee threads but then the bolts start spinning & won't tighten up.
Would a screwdriver behind them in the channel work to hold them in place??
Thanks in advance.
Gearbox mounts and crossmember
