Gearbox suspension Getrag

[wolfram]

Hi!
I wonder if anyone knows what crossmember to use when mounting
a Getrag 5-shift dogleg gearbox on a E9?
Want to use the original "slots" on the chassi.

Thanx/ Wolfram

i have that setup on the rally E9 using the chassis slots. But it is custom made from a U profile with flat ends for the bolts. Also some cut-outs to clear the box shape. Don't know if it exist as a OEM part ???

The box is used both in the E24 and early M3,s.
But I dont know if these cars have the same dimensions.
E9 for "rally" ? What kind of rallys?
Best regards/ wolfram

Hi Wolfram, we drive regularity rallys in Belgium and a few in France.

Thanx!
Thread really helpful. I´ve ordered a new cross-member.
Spring is soon to come. Even up here in the artics/ Pehr

There is a heavy gauge upgrade bracket that utilises two rubber suspension mounts and four bolts in the channels instead of one mount and two bolts.

Don may have them.

Thanks for the conversion 19022-loink.
One question: where is the rear end mount (the long one)
connected to the car?

Looks like that shiny bolt is what it'd bolt up to if you're talking about the CoupeKing rear mount.

One end is mounted to rear gearbox bracket & another end go just to gearbox shifter mount support.
