Title: Mystery part
Post by: peteracs on March 04, 2017, 11:17:44 AM
Hi All

Just putting back various brackets on the engine and came across this bracket. I thought it was the clutch spring bracket, but that is most definitely a different bracket with a small hole for the spring. This bracket attaches to the front engine mount (or at least it does on my engine). I also could not find it in the parts book, so anyone have a clue what its use is?

Thanks

Peter

Looks like one of the hooks for lifting the engine, I think one goes on the gearbox the other somewhere at the top of the engine

I did wonder if that was its purpose. Anyone confirm that it should be attached to the top bolt of the front engine mount?

Thanks

Peter

One on gearbox diff where it bolts to rear mount, one on engine at front on exhaust manifold mounting, one on front engine mounting the one that goes inside the subframe RH bottom bolt onto engine
