Hello,

I just changed out the engine in my 240D and am installing a new engine shock. Since the old one came out under less than ideal circumstances, I didn't pay attention to how all of the bushings and washers went together!

This is all of the mounting hardware I have:



Does it assemble like this?



The bottom to me seems pretty straightforward, with a rubber bushing on either side of the chassis mount, and a metal shield over each bushing, but the top confuses me with the size of the opening in the engine mount and that cap piece, I can't see how two rubber bushings work in there.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!!

Your bottom picture is correct. The "sheet metal" goes between the 2 rubber bushings at the top and the 2 at the bottom.

Dave
