Replacing motor and transmission mounts in a original 1973 1.7. Any suggestion on the type and where to purchase? Thanks,
Ken |

Very happy with my wevo semi-solid trans mounts. Keeps everything aligned a lot better than the 40 year old mounts I had in the car before. Allows for more aggressive upshifting. Maybe just placebo, but I think they were worth the extra money.

I looked at these but when I was putting my motor back together and ready to go I could not find them, they were out of stock everywhere. Are the WEVO still being made? |

I got mine from tarret engineering earlier this summer. They were out of stock everywhere else I looked at that time. Wevo told me they had a batch on order at the time. They probably have them back in stock by now. |
