    Most likely is worn or collapsed engine and gearbox mounts.

    Not sure why you want the release bearing picture, its definitely not that.

      iv had a look underneth and to hand they seem prety solid, could the wight shift of the engine move the box in a way you couldnt by pushing nd puling on the box?


      the release bearing is another issue, haha

        Yes the weight transfer of the weight of the whole engine and gearbox under braking or even just lifting off is a lot more than you can muster pushing it with your hand.

          (Furthermore, the lever length amplifies the movement)

            Definately engine/box movement. You can tell the difference after fitting uprated engine/box mounts that there is much less hopscotch playing from the stick.

              The gear stick movement your on about happens on mine as well.

              Is there any cause for concern? would it need to be sorted sooner rather than later?
