In the old days, if you wanted to upgrade your 1.9L van with the superior 2.1L exhaust system, you would have to find a used 2.1L engine mount and then swap them out- a job that is much easier said than done. No more! With this kit, you can update your early engine mount instead. These adaptors bolt to the 1.9L engine mount and provide the mounting provisions needed for the late-style muffler saddles.

Kit includes:
• (2) Stainless brackets
• Installation hardware

Great fit, had one small problem

This is a must have for the ss exhaust on early vanagon. Fit is perfect. Detailed instructions including where to cut on the heat shield. My right side mount actually snapped right at the fold in the metal. Contacted GW and they made it right and also fwd it to their R&D dep so they could track this. First failure they seen like this but assured me they would likely be making the a bit thicker just for good measure. Great work GW.

Great product

Perfect mod for 2.1L exhaust update for the 1.9L wbx. Heat shield modification isn't too difficult, but don't get in hurry. The only problem i had was due too lack of support for the J pipe side, there was a still a lot of vibration/ movement and over time the flange cracked completely through. Twice. I can't blame the bracket, but it is frustrating. That said, this is a great fix for the 1.9 to 2.1 exhaust upgrade. Thank you for making things like this available. Gotta keep 'em running!
