After looking at the over kill design I would certainly go with the OTTP mounts. I would not feel comfortable with a bolt in replacement part in that location. The design has does not appear to have a provision to keep the bushing centered. I think the bolt in design could slide causing alignment and handling issues.

buy john powells stuff. the ottp stuff was originally dont by powell but is no longer. so rather then buying the copy that ottp started building you can pick up the original stuff here from powell himself.

like it was stated above the bolt in spherical thing is going to be a failure sooner or later. nothing looks good about it. theres no need to give a technical pep talk here.

I have the Powell bushings and am very happy with them. Really helps the feel of the front end.

lol. ive been around for quite some time and dont look at the sign up date on this name because ive had many before. i can correct whoever i feel like how am i suppose to know that you know? so before acting like a total jag off you can word things nicely and ill leave it at that. if you wanna continue your argument you can take it to pm and we can talk man to man rather then in a thread.
