Mint69 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Having a few troubles with my mk2 cortina with getting the gearbox mount to fit into the bolt holes under the car. the situation is that the car body shell is automatic that has been changed to a manual but the mounting brackets for the automatic box are too far foward for a manual box. Any tips on what gearbox mounts would fix this without having to weld something in. dont wana have to get it certed thats all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Kinda had the same problem in my mk3, cept it was 4spd to 5spd, i ended up using a auto cortina X member, not sure if that will work though. Any pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipsittin Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I had to fit rivnuts to the last mk2 cortina and mk1 and 2 escorts i changed to manual. The holes should be there being a 69 and the only thing is you may have to use metric rivnuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
