Is the THS rear mount (dog-bone) preferable over the VW R32 unit?  Only replacing the rear mount.

Perhaps a few bucks cheaper and spreading the $ love around slightly!   :grin:

Opps i meant dog bone, the wish bones just have knackered bushes, got them from avs £22 each with the bushes and a wheel bearing for the mk2, i have got the bushes in the garage but can't be arsed pressing them out at the moment so going to change complete then do the old wishbones later, paint them up and sell them on.

exactly what I did, although I got one of the blokes at work to do the pressing for me  :wink:

Post by: johnson6672 on 20 August 2009, 21:27

i'll do the pressing at work once the press has been installed. Just need to get them changed, noticed the rear bushes are starting to split, once done then i will reposition the exhaust.
