which would be better an engine and tranny mount, or an engine damper....or both.

 

I'd like to tell you to go Engine Dampner, Solid Motor and Tranny Mounts, and Traction Bars. But that would be over kill! So i'd tell you to go with solid motor and tranny mounts and then go with traction bars also.

There seems to be an issue with the dampners and their long term performance. There seems to be quite a few people who have had trouble with theirs breaking after a relatively short time.

Although, I don't think a lot of the solid motor mounts (i.e. TTR) have been around long enough for anyone to comment on their long term performance either...

 

I got all 3 just to be sure. Better safe then sorry.......

 

Hey man it's over kill lol, but like you've said better safe that sorry. And to add to the long term usage of the dampners, if you run a stiff motor mount set up, you won't have to worry about the dampner moving as much becuase the engine won't move as much. If you run solid mounts and the dampner, I don't see you having a problem with them in the long run.

Aren't the dampners completely useless with a solid mount? Shouldn't the engine not move at all in that area?

 

The engine will move just a little; the mounts aren't completely solid (as in metal on metal plates), they use urethane. But yes, it's a waste of money to buy both.

 

I've had my dempner for a little over a year, and I puled it off to tighten it up a little and the sucker fell apart. waste of $200. Get motor mounts.

 

We have the Turbo Tech Racing solid engine mount on sale for about 1 more week. Check it out.

 

i have a solid tranny mount from BWoody, and it has comepletely solved my problems with wheel hop

 

start with tranny mounts. that will solve a lot. then go engine mount if not satisfied. dont bother with the ingalls. IMO

 

go to www.cobaltperformanceparts.com and they have some tranny mounts that work excellent and totally eliminate wheel hop!! price is good to, i believe only 65 shipped for both sides!!

 

I got my solid transmission mounts from www.turbotechracing.com for $60 for the pair. Very nice addon and easy to install.

 

what is a dampner? haha it's called a damper

 

i have the intense tranny mounts and ingalls dampner. ive had the dampner for over a year and a half and with these three it really doesnt move. id say tranny mounts and either a dampner or motor mount

 

I have the TTR motor mount, and CA billet mount with poly insert for the tranny and the engine doesnt move a bit and wheel hop is gonnnneeeee

 

You bottom line need the TTR Engine mount and tranny bushings to keep the wheel hop for good. Just one part only does have the battle

 

what about a daily driver vehicle who likes to run at the track now and then.

Keep in mind I am **** about rattles and squeeks. i cant ****** stand them.

 

The you should go with the damper instead of the mounts but you aint going to get the traction you would if you had the mount and tranny bushing i think but yeah you wont like the motor mount then if you hate rattles

 

All I have is the Damper and I have ZERO wheel hop! 2500 launch, with nuthin' but a little tire smoke, no hoppin at all!

 

wheres a good place to buy the dampers right now?

Im lookin for someone who will ship to canada cheap or free.


hmmm why hasnt there been a group buy on these lately anyway heh

 

there just was one on torque dampers i believe

 

I had Torque Forward dual torque dampers and can say it barely did anything. I think stronger mounts would be a better investment. I'm not saying it wasn't my shitty ass driving at the time, but i still weelhopped and broke my axles and trans with the dampers on.
