Yes mate, they are the Dog Bone mount. Stops the engine rocking when under load. Stops wheel hop when the wheels spin. Make the whole car feel tighter. Best cheap mod i have done, and im sure others will agree.

 

[Slimy]

That's on my 'to do' mod list, even though I'm not a fast driver by any means I can still see the benefit of an uprated engine mount.

 

[psycho6285]

Its for the mount from the Gearbox to the Subframe.

 

[MarkWales]

on my to do list

 

[Fadel]

On my to do list too lol

 

[Murdered LCR]

Mine to but I'm also going to change the round bush at the back of the dbm

 

[MarkWales]

Why?

 

[Murdered LCR]

Because you can lol may as well change them all it's on Dpm site

 

[fcuknafe]

Are those the right ones in the link to replace? What kinds job is it? Thanks guys

100% worth it! Less wheel hop equals smoother, more progressive getaways

i did it to my cupra, i did it to my lcr, best thing i had done, my mate did it to his pd150 golf = worst thing he ever did, made the car shake like mad lol bloody dirty D's lol

hmm, was it done properly? they have to be torqued on correctly. overtightened can cause severe vibration as I found on 1st LCR..

brilliant mod though still! need the full bush kit now though, and engine mounts.. then I'll be happy!

deffos a good mod, i eventually contracted my local legend to fit it for me, made a really good difference along with all the other polybushes powerflex do. freshened up my aging suspension

got the whole kit on my dirrty derv http://www.superpro.eu.com/Catalogue/CatalogueDisplay.aspx?MenuID=11&KitNumber=KIT5133AK well worth doing.

 

[t32er]

my mate had the same bush as me and it was solid, i wasnt suprised when he said it was shaky stevens but i was told there was one for the D's a little softer but still stiffer than a oem one, (so many bad jokes i wanted to put in to this response)

 

[cupra-rich]

yeah 70k (shore) for a derv. 80k for the petrol

 

[fcuknafe]

What's the job like? Can it br done on axle stands or into a garage on ramps?
