[Fot] TR-4 rear tranny mount "tricks"

[Ted Schumacher]

Tony, very easy to fix. Convert to a late model TR6/Spitfire mount 
set-up.  They use 2 rubber stud on each end mounts that are on an angle. 
So the side forces don't drag the mount across the flat bottom plate as 
OE TR mount but rather drive the mount into angle bracket, absorbing 
forces rather than tearing mount loose.  Ted
