Trans mount bracket NLA?

Postby billy bee » Tue Apr 28, 2015 2:36 pm

Hi guys:

The trans mount bracket is broken in my wife's 1991 900 Convertible. See below. I tried to order a new one from thesaabsite and they say it is no longer available. So,I plan to weld it back together. I think it is too small to gusset or plate it. Any other suggestions as to where to buy a new one or how to repair this one?

TIA,
bb

The junk yard is a good place to look, I am sure there are people on this forum who can send you one....you could weld it up or have something machined too...luckily its a pretty simple piece.

Take that one out and have it welded.

It'll buy you some time to find a replacement.
