Not sure if the metal it still good enough. Will have it blasted.

I wondered if it is a TVR 'home brew' as I've not seen one like that before.

It does have that look to it - cut and welded from simple shapes rather than stamped and pressed. Presumably the bushes themselves would be standard parts.

RT Racing, before Richard sold the firm), had a back catalogue of sundry chassis parts / brackets such as that that they would get laser cut for the chassis jobs they used to do.

It may be worth getting in touch with Central / RT and seeing if such parts are still available?

Racetrack do them. £45.

Racetech? Just the bushes, not the bracket?

Cheers phillpot - I read it wrong so I'll give them a ring on Monday to see if they do the whole bracket.

Did TVR fit one of these?

[phillpot]

V6 cars S1 to S3 from a Ford Sierra

Ha Ha - typo

[WhatamIgettingmyselfinto]

Is that for the 'Koala' diff mount? worst case scenario, the rear covers for the diffs are interchangeable so you could use the type fitted to earlier S cars.

That guy is hilarious, thanks for sharing !!

It would be great if these were still available I asked a few years ago but no joy.. Klitchki didn't fancy making them at the time as the cost would likely be too high.

I currently run the GrpA style Cosworth / V6 item but have sheared one set of bots already with the Duratec conversion so was looking for something more suited to a higher power.

AAAaah right - I thought they used the Ford 7.5" Sierra/Granada diff

but just googled and they use the BTR or GKN and I know nothing about them
