    Puma Gearbox centre mount

    Hi all

    Ummmmmm, was fiddling round underneath running battery cables et al, and did notice that it appears that the gearbox centre mount isn't there.

    Cross member hole, gearbox hole but no mount. For Transit GB/Puma engine Defenders, is this correct?

    W/S manual for GB removal only mentions "remove cross-member". However, LR manuals being what they are, there could be the assumption that one would also remove the mount.

    Would hate to think that this truck has done 57K kms without one.

    Something I could well imagine from Pre BMW/Ford years but not these days ???????????????????????????????. (TATA??)

    Please advise.

    Cheers RF
