Ordered the O rings a while ago too, so had them waiting to go - in terms of the movement though, wouldn't the screws that hold the rear springs in prevent any sideways movement?
(can't seem to find the part number for the oval piece of plastic, just the new motor plate itself
)
edit: oh, I think I see what you mean now.....the way that the car was set up when I received it was wrong then, as the rear screws that hold the springs in place actually bolted through the chassis (probably to make up for the fact that the rear guide pin and screws weren't there) thus holding the motor plate to the chassis......
So, what my original question should have asked then, will be there be any real difference if the rear motor plate is bolted on via the rear spring screws - rather than by using the rear guide pin? recognise the current way means that the rear springs are actually redundant - so there's my answer then I suppose
