Changed the engine mounts, whats next ?

[Eriksson]

Hi

i had a problem that when i step of WOT it felt like the engine flopped around under the hood.
After replacing my old with brand new the differance was remarkable.
More tight in the drive train.
One of the old mounts was empty of oil.

But i still have chunk forward when i step of WOT on 1st 2nd 3rd gear.
What could be the problem ?

Things changed
PowerFlex Diff bush
PowerFlex Wishbone bushes
New diff bushes (stock)
New Gearbox bushes (stock)

The rear diff makes a bong on hard gear changes.

Another thing is that i can move the driveshaft in and out of the rear diff.
And im able to adjust the rear diff forwar and backwards about 1,5cm
when loosing the rear diff bush and the 2 bushes holding it up.
Should i adjust the diff forward och backwards ?

What about the snub mount? Thats the one on the front of the engine that locates onto the front crossmember.

what rear diff could i use ?

I have seen that its possible to use a rear diff fron an audi 80 coupé quattro 2.3l, 2.8l
Is it really so ?

Do i need to modify it in anyway to get it to fit ?

Cheers

There was talk of rear diffs being swapped in other posts. Do a search on this forum.
