agreed...I was just speaking with a forum member to see if I come off as rude or harsh in my posts. He put it very well... "No, it's just apparent that you don't like stupidity!"

Arrogance will always diminish intelligence, IMHO.

Hey Chris - do you use just the front mount or a combinations of the front and rear?

why does no'one currently have side mounts out?? I know Andrew (SVXIN) is working on all four mounts, but I only want the front and both sides.

I think that most people don't want the harshness that comes with soild mounts, there probably just is'nt enough demand for them right now

wow, I'd much rather have SOLID, HARD side mounts than stiffer front and rear mounts. The solid side mounts will take more abuse but they won't vibrate anything and still keep the wheels planted.

Q about replacing one motor mount

I was just wondering if replacing one motor mount would have a detrimental affect on the other stock mounts. Wouldn't making one of the mounts stiffer make the other mounts move more therefore degrade faster?

Just a thought.

I use just the front AWR mount and it does'nt make the others wear out faster, if you look at it( under the rad) it just keeps the motor from moving around to much

Logic dictates otherwise but you can't argue with someone who is doing it without a problem. I'm probably going to end up just replacing the front mount temporarily.
