[FC] Transmission Mounts

Thu May 8 14:07:32 EDT 2014

The rubber mounts in the cross member are the same as the car mounts. 64 had a bit different front mounts but they can be used if you really wanted to. The late model trans mounts are on an angle so they will not work easily in an early.

Good Morning everyone

My question to day concerns motor mounts. I went to change the transmission 
mounts and I noticed on my 62 G B are a bit  different... Is it possible to use 
the mounts of the early or late?  or is that going to get me in a can of 
worms...?

warmest Regards and thanks in advance for your help...
