TheRecklessEngineer Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 When I did this, I did exactly that - chopped the tops off the mounts then welded them back on lower down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Cut off 28mm. Make sure the hole in the centre stays in the same plce relative to the crossmember. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eightpot Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I cut the bottom mounts off the rad surround instead, drilled two holes in the bottom to line up with the holes in the chassis mounts and passed bolts through - worked a treat and no welding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
