E39 engine mounts

[ChrisS]

Peter thanks for these. I have actually just got a message back from Kevin at Marlin this morning agreeing that I had the wrong mounts and he would be making me a new set on Monday. Rickard had provided some photos which allowed him to identify the right jigs to use.
Slightly alarming that the jigs arent clearly identifiable as to which engine type they are for.
There are differences in the fabrication of the arms between your photos and Rickard’s, but the mounting plates and overall size, angles etc look the same from what I can see.

Thanks again.

OK, glad they are getting you sorted out.

Hi Chris,

Yes. the pictures Peterux has sent look suspiciously similar to my M50 mounts for an E36 chassis.

Glad Marlin are sorting it out for you.
