Engine and Gearbox mounts
« on: 01 June 2009, 22:21 »
Wich ones to get and where from? heard about the R32 dogbone mount, which one is this, how much and where from.
I think mine are worn and thats what is causing my exhaust to knock!

Thanks Bob, is that it just 2 mounts, one left and one right, easy peasy, which ones to go for now, i have noticed on the Gbox side there is little bits of rubber bits around it, i guess this is the mount breaking up.

THS mounts, can't recommend them enough. New uprated mounts stopped my exhaust knocking. They also make an uprated dog bone mount which I suspect is the same as the R32 version

Hmm nice, but bloody expensive, how much do the R32 ones cost and what about TT one as i know alot of the other parts from them are good upgrades?
