+1

The pre-89 mount are very close to the mounts used in the 80's toyota trucks. Northwest Offroad made poly mounts for em...

/\/\ Thats the tranny mount, but... you know how the rubber is melded to the metal brackets that bolt into place. I understand the engine mounts. There's nothing they could do with that, but I thought the tranny mount woulda been possible

 

[Poodles]

Seen both, and seen them make mounts that are fine.

It sounds like a crock of shit IMHO

 

[Grimsta]

Where have you seen these mounts? Are you talking about the solid aluminum BIC mounts? Keep in mind solid aluminum is a lot different from poly urethane

 

[Poodles]

Talking about other mounts made by energy suspension and others.

Energy Suspension has also reengineered quite a few mount styles.

 

[Grimsta]

Well I'll be fabbin my own solid aluminum engine mounts. Once I prototype mine I'll have them available for whoever wants

Why?

 

[Grimsta]

why not?

 

[Grimsta]

Here they are boyz & the slip to prove it. Sway bar bushings & all the control arms you could ever want. I'll have a new feature and price up tomorrow in my thread, The Drifter's Corner

 

[gaboonviper85]

nice!!!!....i need to get these soon!

 

[zurud]

Black? Don't they make them red like for other car?

 

[honestabe]

Dude, black is sexy because it's stealth, and stealth really pisses unsuspecting competition. :biglaugh:

 

[IJ.]

why not?

Because they're a joke and serve no real purpose other than some kiddie ricer/racer wannabe fantasy?

How about they make the car harsh at certain rpm?

Give me a real reason for fitting them?

You can get them in red or black

They're easy to make. Just gotta cut my round hunk of aluminum to length and drill a hole in the middle. And its cheaper as well

 

[IJ.]

So you're being cheap and that's your reason to do this?

 

[Grimsta]

PRetty much. And engine vibration being transmitted to the cabin i could car less about. The cars for track not for comfort.

But get this, i'm being even cheaper! I'm picking up a blown motor Supra for $200, so maybe i'll use his mounts if they're not torn, lol.
Any need an R154, or drive shaft carrier bearing? I'll be partin this one out

 

[IJ.]

Quit being cheap and use some of your MadRad $$$ and buy a new set of mounts

 

[Grimsta]

Ha ha, MadRad goes to payin shop overhead and now that I got bushings and a steering rack and harnesses, I need a halfway decent seat for NASA.

to continue this thread hi jack remember the seat rules if you do wheel to wheel racing. if you buy a tube and cloth seat it has to have metal bracketing in the back to support it. so you should just pay up and get a nice bucket set like the sparco pro

 

[themadhatter]

I'm just wondering with the ES bushing when you install the control arm bushings is there a metal sleeve(outer shell of old bushing) that has to be pressed out before the es bushings can be installed?
