Subject: [Fot] TR3 transmission mount cross piece<br>
<br>
Last night during routine car prep I noticed 3 of the 4 bolts that secure<br>
the cross piece (the bracket between the rear mount and frame) were missing<br>
and the court was loose. This is the second time in a year this has<br>
happened.<br>
<br>
Does anyone else find this happening in their TR3-6?  Any ideas why these<br>
particular bolts back them selves out?<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
