Title: rear engine mount for a 76 1600 Super Venga : D???
Post by: kriemhild on June 07, 2012, 10:29:28 AM
well apparently I really need one... are they fairly universal? could I even get one from an old Hunter? or does anyone have one?

this could be what's causing all that vibration on a Cantabrian scale. any help would be much appreciated : D.

universal?

this is what I beleive you are after

the Part name is a "Universal" joint

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_joint

Bolts the Drive shaft to the Differential

Last time mine went (many many moons ago) the garage just got one in for me : dont think they are too uncommon or hard to get these days still

I think she was asking if the engine mounts were universal, not about a universal joint.  :P

I got new engine mounts for my 1500 when I get that rebuilt so I know you can still buy them new.

All the Avenger mounts would be the same but I would say the hunter ones would be different because it is a totally different engine.

Send a PM to "Avengerparts". he imports heaps of parts for the Avenger so he should be able to get you one.

I also got the UJ's replaced on my Charger and avenger so they are still easy to get.

I was thinking she ment gearbox mount.

Here is a shot of the new front mounts on my engine

And this is my gearbox mount (sierra gearbox but still in the same place as a standard Avenger gearbox)
