New Rotated Trans Mounts

[sput]

Would it be advisable to remove the ingalls torque dampener with these mounts installed or is it better to leave it in place?

It's been asked - you need to go back to a stock top mount. The TTR one doesn't allow the movement that having a rotated engine will cause. Same with Ingalls.

The big seller for me on this product is the reduction of cabin vibes. I have noticed many of my interior panels rattling & squeaking much more since I installed the poly mounts. I would love to kill 2 birds with one stone, but do agree with others that it seems a little overpriced. I think I'd be more willing if it was like $100-150 per mount, and the turnaround time better be damn fast if there is a core charge. Not sure I can just have my car out of commission for a week or so?

It helped a bit more than the torque dampers, but it still didn't stop it completely. I can still hop on command if I want to. I have a feeling that even with this installed I could as well.

Yep. Considering it uses stock trans mounts, I'd be willing to bet a large part of the hop reduction in that video was from losing power delivery to the ground (since the transmission will move around without the polys).

I have poly trans mounts and ttr upper mount. i get no wheel hop on the street, but still get bad wheel hop on the track.

Pay to play.....I've got no problem with that....but I read it elimanated wheel hop...then watched the video.....its obvious that it did not eliminate all the wheel hop. I need to see all little more proof and testimony from other members to justify its price.

That car in the video still hopped....



not impressed. That was also on the street... at the track that car would have broke.

Thats what I'm saying...and I assuming that was the stage 3 setup....soooo $400+200 in core charges upfront for something that is still gonna give me wheel hop which still=axle death..... If more proof comes.....with a slightly lower price...done deal...otherwise I'd stick with polys and deal with the vibes.....I'm not trying to diss OTT because they make great products....but I think this a good step in the direction of fixing this issue.

I would be really curious to see what would happen with poly mounts inside the rotated brackets. Best of both worlds.

I see what ur sayin, but i think his point was that this part is CLAIMED to ELIMINATE wheel hop, yet the vehicle equipped with said part still had wheel hop.

The vehicle didn't have wheel hop, that was the tires slipping and trying to find traction due to 36psi being in them with a 4k clutch dump.

<<----- Dumb Ass.

if you guys watch the video without sound and just watch the wheel you can see its not hopping.

Do you have a video of someone getting wheel hop to compare? I'm not trying to be a dick, I've never seen a video for comparison and don't think it would be visibly obvious.

[Edubs]

Doesn't look like wheel hop to me.

Thanks sput...

[Sharkey]

it can be quite obvious if its severe wheel hop. here is an example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOVtn...eature=related yes its a rwd, its about the only vid i can find
