Find out what the rubber mounts came off, or were meant to fit, and find some harder poly bushes.

The poly will not tear as easily as rubber, and should be tougher/harder by virtue of the material itself.

Don't hard mount the diff. You will come to regret it.

Cheers,
Syd.

Further update:

I spoke to Martin Keenan this morning who told me that he only did 3 chassis like that as an experiment.

He replaced the mounts on his own chassis as they broke straight away - I guess Browny had another, so mine is probably now one of only 2 in existance!

He seems to think the bushes are peugeot 205 wishbones or something.

He feels that if reinforced then they might be ok.

If anyone has any suggestions as to the best way to reinforce the brackets, I would be very grateful

Cheers

Mark

His memory must be playing tricks on him as my chassis has the same mounts too.
