A couple of the bolts on the front rubber mount have come loose so i cant tighten the buts.
Ive cut one out already and replaced it with a bolt and will weld it up in the morning, however if they are not ridiculously expensive we will buy some new, however everything else we have bought has been sillly figures,

Roger Bray:
519.20.016 ENGINE MOUNTS FRONT PAIR £242.00 [£284.35]
519.20.095 TRANSMISSION MOUNT PAIR £119.82 [£140.79]
Stoddard:
$280.00
$170.50
Klasse 356 shows
$270.00
$162.00
but have found their prices to be out of date and always best to email to check

So they aren't cheap, but mine were completely k*ackered and had to be replaced as the rubber had become impregnated with grease/oil and was more like a sponge. If the studs are shot and the rubber aint great probably best to replace regardless

Sounds like that will be me cutting and welding new studs in then that is a ridiculous price, already done one and may have to do one more but an hours labour compared to that is well worth it.

Rubbers great on these its just wear on the studs which has caused two to spin when tightened
