Title: Front strut top mounts
Post by: colinh on June 12, 2018, 03:49:26 AM
Does anyone have both all rubber, and the roller bearing type of top mount ?

Whats the difference ? - it must be in the bore.  I guess pre 73 is the all-rubber type, post '73 the roller type.

I can see from the parts manual that the two types require their own strut.

In other words they're not interchangeable, which is a shame as I have two of the "wrong" type and none of the right type.

Wrong way round, bearing type is the early type.

The diameter is different but can not remember which way.
