the mounts offered by spoox look good , however coming form a peugeot back ground, spoox are known for being terrible.. crap engine rebuilds, silly pricing , crap quality of parts, and generally just being no good at what they do.. Thing being them mounts do look the part.

Hi Dave, I've not had the time to make any more but the ones in logg's link above look fine to me
But will check the link. I'm in no rush so if u do find yr self bored I'd gladly have 1 made lol
As above Chris, if you get time & manage to knock up a couple put my name on one, no real rush but can paypal you the cash anytime bud.
im the same if you get time dude
i would be interested in one of these as well if you was to make some more matey
Scoff spec solid engine mounts are the baddest, i have given mine loads of stick with no probs.
Yeah, I'll get round to it at some point guysi would be interested in one of these as well if you was to make some more matey
good man
I'll have one for the box please
im up for one in raider blue,in time for christmas chris!!!!.....
just to add, id sooner have one of you scoff,.. either way i need one, but personally id sooner see my money go to a fellow rtoc member, rather than one of the young lads whom own spoox rip off merchants!
cash waiting when you knock some up
Top dog. will pay in advance too off u like,Yeah, I'll get round to it at some point guys
me too please!!!!
I still want one chris, be sure that if and when you make some more i get one
Did you get round to making any more mounts ?
Me too
I too would be interested in a mount Scoff. Let us know when they're up and running again.
Nowt of yet, sorry lads. Did anyone investigate and try those spoox ones ?

Dave, sure I offered you one didn't I ? I know I probably ceased making them shortly afterward, so maybe you wern't expecting me to stop so soon, sorry
I was tempted to buy them but at £240+vat and P&P for a full set I thought bugger that.
I've just bought two more rover v8 mounts at £5 each
Take it thats your go ahead Chris??Nowt of yet, sorry lads. Did anyone investigate and try those spoox ones ?

Logg, how did you get on with your own mounts? Have you had them made up yet or even fItted and tested?I was tempted to buy them but at £240+vat and P&P for a full set I thought bugger that.

Still keen on this idea
Well the front two are almost finished when there done ill get some pictures up and ideas of prices
Logg, sounds good mate, keep us abreast of your progress.
In the mean time, Scoff would be willing to make up a new batch of an absolute minimum of ten, otherwise it's just not cost effective. I would also add (a search or reading this thread will confirm) that these are proven rear mounts, with many members running them for some time now. I personally would be happy to pay up front for one of these but, ultimately, that will be Scoffs call.
I'll start the list for a potential manufacturing run of at least 10 rear mounts. I'll also assume that the mounts will cost between GBP40-50 based on the original price and maybe a bit of extra cost in purchasing the raw materials, plus postage.

Thanks guys, no one needs to worry about paying up front, if a couple of folk drop out then it's not the end of the world, I can sell them via the webshop or whatever. If we can get somewhere near to 10 requests I'll order materials and get to work
I should say that the only thing that looks to have gotten anymore expensive is the postage so we can say £45 delivered for a rear mount with the later 77mm V8 rubber.
Cheers, Chris

Roll up, roll up, get 'em while they're hot.
If your GTT is running more power than standard, there's a good chance that your standard rear mount is probably going to give up sometime in the future. The standard rubber is quite soft and even a good condition new OE mount will allow some mild movement.
Fitting the Scoff rear mount will stiffen things up which will not only increase longevity but, should improve gear shift feel too.
Go on, you know you want to......

put me down too , i have one on the rowan car ....crackin stuff...come in no 10
Ok then, we have a list! I will order up materials and make a start on them next week. I'll keep this thread up to date.
I've collected all the materials including 17 mounts so I have enough to go for a while. Enough steel for 10 or 12 initially. I'm really happy with the new mounts, I shopped around and found some good quality ones, this time zinc plated (instead of flakey paint) and marginally stiffer than the last lot.
There will be a slight change to the design too to help speed up production. The main "n" shape in the center will be formed from 4mm steel instead of cutting, folding and welding like before.
I've got a load of work to do this week but I hope to get cracking next week.
spot on dude, cheers for the update,

who do we send te payment to?a paypal address?
Don't worry about that until I've made the batch but anything goes - paypal, debit/credit card, cheque or BACS
The sample of the fronts have been finished. will spend the next few weeks testing them once there's more info I'll start it's own thread.
