Re: front gearbox mount
Welded to the underside of the van? Nothing wrong as such apart from being a little trickier to align if/when you change gearbox. Bit of a numbnut thing to do though when it wouldn't have been very difficult to extract the studs in the first place. Hope that helps.
Why would the glass be anything other than half full?
