I have to agree, its the parts that are 'no damn good'. I put diff mounts in
in early June and they were destroyed by August. The pair in there now seem
fine, but that last pair didn't last 60 days.

Gernot -
I assure you that my mechanic (who restores British sports cars for a
living
and has developed quite
a reputation over the years as an absolute perfectonist) installed the
parts
correctly. Why do some
people rail at 'the mechanic' when IT'S THE PARTS THAT ARE NO DAMN GOOD?
