306 design "improvements"

[Ben_w]

I'd definitely redesign those shaft retaining bolts!

I would have designed it so the lower engine mount bracket didn't have the sodding drive shaft running through it (on XU's at least.  Not sure if other engines had the same issue).  Makes changing the mount a much bigger job than it should be, especially with those stupid bolts that hold the driveshaft bearing in place!!

Both of those arw a proper twat.....the engine i took out of that 6 i nroke, i had to take the whole bracket off and whack the intermediate shaft until it eventually fell out. Glavanic corrosion between a steel bearing shell and that ali bracket
