Hello All,
I have a 914-6 conversion that I bought from someone. Well, looking at the rear trans mount, it's off the posts. This does not look right. Any ideas of whta is wrong and what I need to do to correct. (this does not look safe.) The engine appears to be mounted in the correct place and everything else looks ok. I am thinking that the rear mount is the wrong one??? Here's a pic. I really hope someone can point me in the right direction. -- brett |

I'd be looking at the front some more to see what has allowed the engine and transmission to move that far back.
It's not right and it's not safe to drive until you fix it. |

I'd be looking at the front some more to see what has allowed the engine and transmission to move that far back. It's not right and it's not safe to drive until you fix it. The car is up on jack stands at the moment. I will check the front mounting and post some more pictures. What is really scary, is that I have been autocrossing the car and it's been doing well. I even had the car in the shop for work, and not one word was said about the trans location. Well, it's going to get fixed now. Thanks for the help, and I will have some more pictures in a couple of hours. (can't get to it right now.) -- brett |
