Albertc454 Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 My name is Albert and I have a 1971 521 Datsun pickup.i just put in a new clutch and notice that my truck had the wrong transmission mount and on.i have a 4 speed manual transmission and the mount is for a automatic transmission.i looked for the right one all over the place and can't seem to find it if someone could help me I would really appreciate it.and how do I post a picture? 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Hi Albert and welcome to Ratsun. If it runs, does it really matter? 521's didn't have automatics so if it has one then someone has used it because it's all they had. Sometimes you do what ever it takes to keep your Datsun on the road. So again, does it work and run alright? 2 Quote Link to comment

Albertc454 Posted April 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 It was working and I was happy... but my clutch went out,and I just don't want to have to replace it again if that was the reason for it going out. How do I post a picture? And thank you for replying king rat 1 Quote Link to comment
datson4life Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 If the engine is mated properly to the transmission i doubt the mount will cause clutch issues 1 Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 No factory autos. But in the last 46 years a few have been converted to autos. The trans mount for an auto won't cause a clutch to go out 1 Quote Link to comment
