Hi,
I'm trying to fit an OMP lower strut brace (or rather my local garage are) but it's catching on the gearbox side. Previous posts on here suggest worn engine mounts as the most likely cause. I think mine are original mounts so quite likely to be the cause. My local garage say they are unable to source the engine mounts (tried all their usual suppliers including Ford) so I've done a quick search on eBay and it looks like there's various after-market mounts available.
Any advice on the best ones to get? Or has anyone got any new / unused or even uprated ones they want to sell?? Also any alternative options for fitting the lower brace?? It seems to make sense that new engine mounts should raise the engine just enough to clear the brace... I hope!
Cheers,
Paul
