OTTP'S New Mounts

I'm just curious to know how everyone likes the new updated mounts. The new mounts are made right here in michigan. Some of you are prob still waiting for them to be delivered I bet, so when they show up please post your thoughts.

The changes that were made are mostly cosmetic but we did change a couple other things. Visually the rear mount has slightly taller sides and a completely flat back instead of a rounded one. Also every edge now has a nice cnc chamfer. We changed bushings again and had to figure out the best way to get them pressed in centered and straight, this took a little while longer than expected, but in the end was an easy fix. Because of this, any grease that is used to press the bushings in is minimal and this creates a cleaner part.

I'll put some pictures up later.

I am working on making an engine bracket for the passenger side that will work with all current upper mounts.

So going from solid mounts with no hop to the rotated mounts with hop means he needs a totally different upgrade?

Others have found that you need the solid top motor mount as well as the rotated mounts to get rid of hop completely.

When you pay for billet they should be pretty. We've had customers think we sent them used mounts before because they were dirty with grease.

imo I think most cars have wheel hop and it's something that can be controlled and helped alot, but not eliminate completely.

How does the new mount insert compare to those on the previous mounts that were made by PRS? Softer, stiffer? More vibes, less vibes?

Many reasons. The main being it cost too much to have John make the mounts, we were paying about $285 a set after shipping and duties from canada. It also takes forever to get anything from canada. I also wanted to change the design to have give the mount a cleaner look.
