Triumph 2000, 2500 & 2.5Pi Engine & Gearbox Mountings
Engine and gearbox mountings isolate the drivetrain from the bodyshell, preventing vibrations reaching the cabin whilst supporting the weight of the straight-six engine and gearbox assembly. Rubber deteriorates over decades, causing excessive drivetrain movement that affects gear selection quality and increases stress on surrounding components. Fresh mountings transform the driving experience by eliminating clunks during acceleration and restoring original refinement levels.
Mounting Locations and Functions
The 2000 series uses multiple mounting points to support the substantial weight of the seven-bearing straight-six engine. Front mountings attach to the crossmember, whilst the gearbox mounting supports the transmission tunnel area. Worn mountings allow excessive drivetrain movement that misaligns the exhaust system and stresses suspension components. Clutch operation also suffers when excessive engine movement affects the hydraulic release mechanism.
Mounting Replacement and Benefits
Replacing all mountings simultaneously ensures balanced support across the drivetrain. Browse our complete Triumph 2000 series range or ring our team on 01522 568000 for mounting specification advice.
