i will take a couple tomorrow and post them on your wall. It looks awesome i think. seems to make a big difference. i do have a slight vibration at low rpms tho i am thinking that is having the bolts a tad to tight.

edit: i got them used. they were a little scratched up but i took the 3" buffer to it and now that aluminum looks like brand new

Shocker, the vibration is what you get from having stiff motor mounts... not from overtightened bolts.

Greg, can't you do the mount flip to yours? I did it to mind and it made everything quite a bit stiffer until I can afford polys.

Morning all... I'm about to go rip the engine out of a kia sorento.

The v8 engine only has one upper dogbone, flipping it isn't going to do much lol.

x2, when you stiffen the mounts your car will shake more at a stop sign and such. There's no zones like the old mounts where the vibrations can go away.

Good morning everyone

Good morning everyone.
To Shocker and Augi seams like some heavy work on your rides today hope the heat isn't going to be a factor for you.

Kind of a laid back day today. Dinner tonight at Sammy's with friends and the wife.

Have a great week-end everyone!
