It's a **** easy job with the car in the air. Two bolts - that's basically it. And even easier for me without having the engine tray to negotiate either.

Nice looking piece of kit tbh. Wouldnt it be far cheaper and pretty much just as effective to just replace the big OEM bush with a solid poly one?? Or to do solid rubber inserts to stiffen it similar to the udder mod?

Mine will need to wait until after the CZ trip, but I have a feeling a LOT is going to be done to my car when I come back. Diff, bushes, dogbone, flywheel. Woot

If you look and see how much room there is to get the bush in, without making one to press in with a metal collar to keep it in place one with shoulders wouldnt fit in the gap!!!!

We even tryed filling the oem one with more Polyeurothane to strenthen it but it just didnt work!!!
Hence why we have had these done.
Vibra technics are probably the most well known people for engine mounts and bushes, quite simply they are the best.

If they happen to get involved in doing other mounts such as the engine ones, please let me know.

Thanks for the enlightening answer Luke. Nice to know that you tried out some different approaches.

Did you want to go in green? I've amended the list as you chopped off Randomrich and did no highlighting.

Edit: Veekar - when I said engine mounts I did mean the one the engine bolts to, and the one the gearbox mounts to. I just call them both engine mounts.
