Thats what I thought. If you break the 400 ones you probably don't have the tranny that they would fit in.

the rear mount on a sc Cobalt/ion car has no plastic spacer. The rear engine mount bolts directly to the cradle with3 bolts. the mount itself has a keyhole pattern locating boss so our spacer is a T6061 watercut part that inserts under the mount and the existing bolts are long enough to be reused. the front mount is an exchange item it uses a different isolation bushing which is off set in the stock housing... i do not modify the top passenger and driver side upper mounts....pm me if u want more info....thanks

well worth the upgrade. some of our wheelhop issues are supposedly caused by distortion in the axle.
plus, you can then run slicks and drop 3-5 tenths off your time

Thats a sale price I believe unless they choose to leave them at that price. Thats a real good deal. I got mine for 700$. I was just under my car today and it looks like some grease is shooting out of the boot. Hope they don't go bad because they are a pain to beat out and get back in.

That was indeed the sale price.
I was able to order one just in time, now it's back to $799
