    Having two people would make a huge difference. Even the encouragement would help...

    Pretty straightforward imo, I have done much harder jobs. It really helps to have a crane, and a good assortment of cordless tools. I don't know if I'd have got the driver's side top nut undone without the big rattler.

    Car is much smoother, even though I don't think my old ones were as bad as some.

    Think I prefer the crane to all of those bits of wood.

    Have been searching for Genuine D2 TD5 gearbox mounts and keep coming up sold out and anecdotally the difficulty in finding them / availability.

    Inadvertently while looking for something else, came across a page where they state

    2 x Genuine Land Rover TD5 Discovery 2 / Defender and Puma Engine Mount KKB500750LR


    I had been searching for the KKB500750 Discovery 2 TD5 engine mount or such variations and all I would get was aftermarket stuff and if they referenced OEW, sold out.


    They are not cheap but they are available genuine, just now it is KKB500750LR

    Not too far from you in Nth Melb is British Car Components

    10 Provost St Nth Melb.

    Call Dave there, and see if he has them. He will have both types, as this is what people want ... some genuine, some cheaper.
    Dunno what he'll have in stock at any time tho.
