Your prototype is going to be on its way soon hack. An extra mount (metal part) has been taking forever to get in.

Less engine/tranny movements. Power to the wheels quicker. The stock bushings are cracking in a lot of low mile cars. The stock bushings also seem to put odd pressure points on the stock housing and the housings have been known to fail.

Hey guys i have both the tranny bushings and TTR motor mount and i can personally say that if you want more power to the wheels the i recomend these you will deff notice a difference no more waiting for the the engine and tranny to roll back cause the power is instantly to the wheels you will be surprised

Good to here. I'm glad its working great for you. We have one more tester waiting for his mount. (Hackabuse) After we get that one out and tested we will begin to market the bushing.

If someone sends us a back mount we can start on that one as well. Otherwise we have to wait for our rear mounts to get here for testing.

Thank you for showing some love for us autos! I was starting to think that nobody would make the mounts for us.

The plan is just to have the inserts. However with the current way it has to be done on a core charge basis.

This is great to hear because I have been waiting for this for months now. How long till they're available and what are they gonna cost. Oh and if you need another test car I'd be glad to do it

Ok the second test front mount is on its way out today. I am going to either overnight it to you hack or 2nd day air. We are doing the rear mounts as well. They should be out by late next week and out for testing.

A big burnout!!!

I did poly inserts on mine, noticed a huge difference in launching and shifting, also had the stock mounts starting to come apart with only about 25K miles. ******* GM with its cheap rubber.
