Title: engine mounts for rover engine to Triumph TR4
Post by: pjetri6@aol.com on January 31, 2016, 02:34:13 PM
Hello, anyone out there know of someone who makes engine and trans mounts  for a Rover 3.9 engine and a 5 speed trans from a Triumph TR7-8  into a Triumph TR4.    I have seen several suppliers that make them for a MGB, but have not come across pre made mounts for the Triumph.  I would be thankful for any help.       Thanks again, Paul

You can check out  the numerous builds here on the website . Lots of swaps Rover into TR4 and TR6 same frame basically . Lots of pictures too of custom mounts. You may find a supplier through checking out the installations. It will give you some good tips also.

There is a little difference in the motor mounts between a 4A and a 6, and the front part of the frame on a 6 is a little different, so take that into account as you do your research.

Hi,  I'm new here so I may not be searching right but, I could use some help with info on Motor Mounts for a Rover 3.9 going in a TR4A solid axle.  I searched several ways but can't seem to find and usable info / photos.

Thanks,
 Roy

I've not seen any offered.  Likely have to make your own.

Copy, just looking for a picture of the mounts others have used and for an idea for the best motor placement.
