I'm trying to replace the gearbox mount on my UK spec 2.8 CRD 6 speed manual, but the part has been discontinued, mopar 52129158af.
Has anyone come up with an alternative solution to the genuine part, I'm struggling to find anything.
Thanks.

Ok, no reply to this, so I guess you guys don't have many six speed manuals.
I did manage to get the mount from a supplier in Europe, cost a fortune and took a while to arrive, but only minutes to fit. It took a lot of searching to find the part and the one I bought was the last one in stock, so if you have a manual check the gearbox mount now, there can't be many of these mounts left out there, get one while you still can.

Yup, we got zero manuals over here sadly. A few guys have managed to fabricate the swap, but it wasn't easy. I always wanted to source the necessary parts from Europe and make a factory kit, but I never got around to making it a priority. A European contact would be a huge help.

Someone in Europe might be able to make a good business out of selling such a kit. Not only are we short on diesels in the US, but we're especially short on manual transmission diesels!

Glad you found your part
