I assume he's talking about the gearbox crossmember....first few words of the 2nd paragraph give the hint to me.

That being said, I have never seen any bushes in that particular part....only bush I have seen is, the gearbox mount

I have a similar issue but with 5 speed manual rear mounting bushes. The appear to look identical as the picture here but I'm unable to locate a supply of them. I was hoping Mackay rubber made them.... anyone got them OEM quality one somewhere??
