Title: Gearbox Mount for Series 3
Post by: kev131 on September 13, 2012, 08:31:46 PM
The attached shows a series 1 and 2 gearbox mount - support.....I believe.

http://www.ebay.it/itm/SUPPORTO-TASSELLO-SOSTEGNO-MOTORE-LATO-CAMBIO-FIAT-131-S-L-CL-SUPERMIRAFIORI-/220866598980?pt=Ricambi_automobili&hash=item336cacd844#ht_1426wt_922

I understand that the series 3 is different. Does anybody have a picture of one..or even better know where one can be sourced please?

Thanks

Yes that's what I was thinking of. I drilled a hole in each end and bolted mine back together ;)

Any ideas anyone....? :)

Why don't you revert back to the old version? Series 3 seems to have softer mounts.

Do you know if they are compatible Bobby?

The mounting parts are very different designs !  ???

You can interchange the whole unit but you will need the metal bracket for the relavent one as they don't intechange but to be honest the series 2 one was far superior as the later one was a very bouncy, wobbly affair.

Not had a chance to check but bracket must be different.

Bump - Still looking for a new one...apparently it's unique to the series 3.

Thanks in advance....

Hi David - I have this type from series 2 - The series 3 is different again.... ???

If you get earlier bracket (series 2) you could use this type or do you want to use series 3 type ?
May have an earlier bracket ?  but I would have to try and find it.

Yes Valentino - We used a Sport gearbox mount and the gear lever is now very steady. :)

Your English is improving!  ;)

Thanks, but I copy paste with google translation, so I'm not really that I'm learning English

This is a series 3 rear gearbox support, I purchased it on ebay 5 years ago, they are common and use to show off at times, see the part on the top of the picture:
