thats because you got the wrong mounts.

I just read up on the bushing issue, OTTP has a warranty and if need be I can call up powell and get their bushings, no worries. I did miss this one though on the forums. Its hard to keep up with all the updates to products and vendors. I have had good and bad stuff from ottp but live and learn. Its only a 20 dollar fix down the road if in the 2 years they go bad. There are lots of ways to replace it according to this thread.

i never had any first hand bad experiences with them. but then again i had the mounts back when they actually were powells. and the other stuff i bought was a pulley and injectors so theres not much there.

cant wait to get powell mounts

I originally thought these were powell mounts with ottp's brand. They are machined billet so there are no quality issues with them in that respect. The problem lies where ottp cheaped out on the bushings. I will just upgrade the bushings later. I had a 20 ton press in the past for setting up axles and differentials but now I just go down to the base hobby shop and use theirs. I dont think they are a total loss.

We actually didn't cheap out on the bushings. Powell used the same bushing for more than a year.... As you have already noticed though we do have a warranty and we also offer an upgraded solid rubber bushing made by gm. Let me know if you ever have a problem.

I got the full story from Gloria when I was up at Powell's shop. Shocking is an understatement.
