Anyone with a type 9 and westfield/caterham mount + ruler!

Is there anyone out there with a type 9 box and using either the caterham or westfield type 9 rear mount?

I could do with knowing the height of the mount, i.e. how much higher the gearbox would sit in comparison to how it would sit without the mount!

Cheers

The westfield/caterham mount is deffinatly not as wide, i have both in the garage so i'll go and have a measure and take a pic.

That'd be great thanks - I can mock it up then and if all is well and good I'll order one!

[edit] found the pics

^^ what they said, but I only measure a 4.5mm difference in height

the sierra mounting centres are 142mm

the westfield/ caterham/ 4speed ones are 94mm

give or take 0.5 of a mm on those sizes
