Modifications to the pendulum support

Pendulum support -1- to gearbox

At the start of production, a steel pendulum support with two/three bushes for subframe mounting were produced - Length of the bushes = 90 mm.

After a short startup phase, this was replaced by an aluminium pendulum support -1- with one bush -arrow- - Length of the bush = 90 mm.

Due to changes made to the pendulum support mounting, a shorter bush was then used in the pendulum support - Length of the bushes = 85 mm.

–	Match the pendulum support to the subframe mounting:

Width of mounting	Distinguishing features	Length of bush(es) -arrow- in pendulum support	Number of bush(es) -arrow- in pendulum support
90 mm	3 holes	90 mm	1 ¹⁾ or 2
85 mm	1 hole	85 mm	1

¹⁾ Secure pendulum support with one bush in front hole on subframe.
