Depends on whether it is seized in or not, it took just over half an hour to do. undid the wheel arch liner, removed the top mount. Then using a large pair of grips, undid the mount from the wheel arch and fitted a new one.

Been a caad'un at Stirling MG today, been busy doing a few jobs on a 75 tourer, including spring/tyre protectors, fitting posh stainless mesh to the lower front grille & renewing some boot lining trims..........one of which proved to be a real pig.
Then had my landlord's ZT in to have it's washers unblocked.

Seems to be some stirring of unrest on the forum tonight!

Nice to head back into our little corner of the forum where friendliness and politeness prevails
