We took extra time to re pack the dampeners with bubble wrap. They initially came to us without much packing, just those foam sheets. We stuffed the boxes with bubble wrap to prevent any damage and things that might have caused a delay for install.... Just giving the best customer service we can

I just found out that you DO NOT want to use the metal washers.. they got added in from the other kits by accident..the newer kits will not have them in it..

the washers kick it off at an angle which you do not want..you want the damper installed as straight as possible.

BTW YOU WANT IT INSTALLED ON THE BRACKETS IN THIS SEQUENCE!!!!

bolt head> rod end>rubber o ring >bracket>nut

if you have it out of sequence you get metallic sounds and potentially harm the damper internals or brackets..

pm'd u about this...I am making shipping add the bubble wrap..I guess they were in such a rush to assemble them that it wasn't added on this batch..

I'm pretty sure it took a 18mm deep well socket on my car. That doesn't really mean it will be the same size on yours because GM has used a few different sizes on the motor mounts.

I'm not promising anything. The top bolts on my car are 16mm, so the nuts might be a different size too.

I am not convinced with this mod. So you guys are gonna be like, well why did you post? Its because I want something to eliminate wheel hop and not something that might. Don't get me wrong, I don't really care. I probably won't take any chances and keep my money until there is more research done. A how to could be kool tho.

It works, makes the entire car feel stiffer, no more lag from the engine moving around on the soft motor mount. And this is all on the stock setting thats not even tight....

I have a stupid question, I hope you understand what Im asking. When the dampener is installed, is it supposed to have a little bit of rotational ability because of the swivle where the bolt goes thru the dampener?

In simpler form with it installed and u grab the dampener is it supposed to be able to twist and turn a little (due to the swivle?)

I got a chance to look at one this weekend and they look the same.. so I THINK it will fit(haven't confirmed it yet)

The only problem is you have to have an aftermarket air intake cause it is not going to fit with the o.e. one...(clearance issues)
