Hi Everyone,

My shop has sent me a pic of a part that needs to be replaced but I have no idea what it is. English is not the first language at the Abu Dhabi shop and all I can really get from them is "Gear Mounting".

Any ideas??? 1995 XJR

(They also need a drive shaft flex joint which I was able to identify but may not be entirely related)

All the Best,
Chris

 

Looks to me like the Transmission Mount Bushing. If it's due for a replacement, I would look into replacing the entire transmission mount: spring, bushing, bracket, everything. Won't be too expensive and it will last you for years.

Hope this helps

 

Trevor's right....replace the bushing (#13 in the illustration) and the springs, and the spring seat insulators

Replacement springs were uprated a bit so as to make the entire affair a bit less loose and bouncy. But, if you're on a budget, it isn't essential

Cheers

Agree with Doug. Not a big job, and as long as you replace the foam bushing, the rest is optional.

 

Thanks Trevor, Doug and countyjag!

The link to the part assembly pic was awesome. Thanks DD

All the Best,
Chris
