300tdi engine mounts

(1/5) > >>

landraver:
Hello all
I'm in the process of fitting a 300tdi engine onto a 200tdi chassis & I need to know the exact position the engine mounting points need to be moved to :roll: . Can anyone help :?:
Thanks guys
Jeff :)

landyman Ash:
They are the same arent they?

I think you'll find the 2.5 to 300 where all the same?

Be curious to find out if they are different.  Ive got a template for 300tdi mounts that bolts to the chassis.  I'm hiring it out if you fancy it.  Cost me nearly £50 but BOY does it make it easy!!!!  If you wnat it you can hire it for £10 and I'll post it out to you just send it back when your done mate.  If you want it, PM me your details

Nope....

2 1/4, 2.5 (petrol and diesel), 2.5 Td and 200Tdi all have the same engine mounts in the same place.

300Tdi, Td5 (and V8') are different...

Engine and box was moved 2" further forward when the R380 was fitted... and the mounts are different.

Well you learn something new everyday!

Thanks for that Porny, apprecaite that

landraver:
Thanks Landyman for your kind offer but I was hoping to start tomorrow so I won't have time to wait for the post, but thanks again, you're a gent.


Porny, do you mean that the engine mounts were moved towards the bulkhead, as I've measured up & according to me thats the way it needs to go, but I don't know by how much. Are the 2 inches you mentioned an actual measurement?

Thanks fellas
Jeff
