crossmember mounts

Post by made24x4 » Wed Sep 28, 2011 6:32 pm

I herd the angle on the crossmember mounts is slightly out when dropping an ej20 into an l series does anyone know anything about how to make the wedges you need to put between the crossmember and engine.

or as i did, just file out the mount slots abit longer.

had no issues doing this.

(but i was running STi group N engine mounts which are stiff and strong as fjck)

if i was doing it again id definately use wedges tho. Paul RSR's seem to be the goer.
