    Do you have the rear mount spacer fitted?

    If he has one of my mount kits as he mentioned then he will have the gearbox mount spacer kit and new bracket for the O/S front mount which doesnt require dropping by 1.5"

    Never had any problems before so curious as to what the problem is???

    He might have everything required, but may have forgot to fit the spacer or something.
