It's part number time!
The car is a 50th anniversary D90.
4.0 V8
The engine mounts on mine are shagged, so new ones are needed...
Anyone done their engine and trans mounts - what did you fit and were there any problems? I put cheapo britpart mounts on my RRC - all the mounts were the same, and seemed rock hard - and it always seemed rough and harsh afterward, like the mounts were too hard, so I'd like to make sure I get the right bits for the D90.
I think I've tracked down the part numbers for the engine and trans mounts from rovers north in the US.
( unfortunately Retroanaconda doesn't have the parts books for the 50th - if anyone has a link, please let me know...)
Engine:-
ANR2803 - some websites suggest STC434 as an alternative,
ANR2804 - supersedes to KKB103120
Transmission
ANR2805 (2 off) - also supersedes to KKB103120
I'm a bit puzzled - I'm guessing that these three part numbers ANR2803/4/5 are actually slightly different parts - even though they all look the same - I'm guessing shore hardness of the rubber? ( otherwise, LR would have used one part number). How come ANR2804&5 supersede to one part number?
Given the £2 to £3 price tag of pattern parts versus the £20-£30 price tag of genuine parts, the cheaper parts are tempting, but are they any good.
(Yup - I've learned my lesson about britpart, but what about all makes and bearmach mounts?)
Anyone know the low down on these mounts?
