DC2T 54 Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) Got a few issues with my subframe, basically i need everything to mount it the the body but as i dont have parts that came off, i dont know exactly what i need to buy. The only parts i do have are some solid mounts that attach to the chassis legs. The subframe is from a 1.9 GTI and its going onto a 1.1 Style if it makes any difference. So, are these all the parts id need to order to fit it? 01 3502 A1 01 FRONT SUBFRAME - XU EXCEPT XUD7T- CARBURETTOR G1- CARBURETTOR J2 02 3502 77 04 SUBFRAME SCREW 10X1,50-60 03 3508 22 01 COUNTERPLATE 04 3523 33 02 WISHBONE BUSH 9A 6922 22 01 SELF-TAP SCREWS 8X125-20 9B 3622 30 01 SELF LOCKG NUT 10X150-12,6-16 9C 6939 83 01 8X125-7-13 9D 6946 77 04 PLAIN WASHER 10X20-2 9E 6962 11 01 FLEXIBLE WASHER 10X21,3-1 Next problem, I went out to trial fit my subframe yesterday only to find that only one side will screw in from the points at the rear. Both captive nuts on the same side seem to have disappeared So, what do i do to solve this dilemma? Edited April 6, 2015 by DC2T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshpug 1,737 Posted April 6, 2015 have you lifted the carpet? you need part #4 for the front mountings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted April 6, 2015 The captive nuts you've lost are actually part 3, as above lift the carpet and it will all make sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackherer 543 Posted April 6, 2015 Now you mention it I think I sent them to you to copy? They were off my old Xsara VTS if so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2T 54 Posted April 6, 2015 You did mate Ive just checked the car and it still has the carpets in, ill get them all ripped out tomorrow and see where we are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackherer 543 Posted April 6, 2015 The double captive nut/bar thing is just held in with some small tabs so you'll probably find it somewhere nearby once you have the carpet up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2T 54 Posted April 6, 2015 Awesome, im thankful for anything i dont have to replace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2T 54 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) You guys were correct I also dont think the xsara mounts are sitting correctly, when bolted up flush the rear part seems to be at an angle. It maybe correct but as i have nothing to compare it to it looks wrong. Ill bolt the rear up first then see how much clearance is between the arm and the body Edited April 8, 2015 by DC2T Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
