Changing engine mounts

[Woody2000]

Hi probably need to change the engine mounts on my triumph 2000 mk2 as they are probably perished stupid question 2 in the front and 1 long one underneath near gearbox ???

Are they just for 2000 or stag,gt6 ,are they the same and easy to swop ??

Be careful with rubber mounts especially engine ones as they might look horrible but still be completely useable while new pattern parts can go on and fail very quickly. Try getting a lever bar in to check them or see how much the engine moves around when taking up the clutch with wheels chocked....

Ditto Johny, in the early 00's we had a run of saloon new engine mounts supplied here in Aus by our local Vic major Triumph supplier which regularly failed in under a year, think it was put down to rubbish Indian manufactured items, don't know if similar products went west too.

Chris Witor sells Superflex polyurethane engine mounts £27.50 each. 

Will probably never need changing again!

not seen a front set failed yet but the rear  overdrive one can be oil soaked and in a bad way

no they are not the same as the  stag /or any small chassis car 

stag gt6/vitesse =  155003 

2000- 2500   =   124734

Even the original front engine mounts have a habit of delaminating.

I always carry a spare in the boot.
