AWR engine mount inserts

[Kooldino]

I have the side inserts...they feel kinda soft, but I haven't tested them yet.

regarding the side ones, aren't they somehow bonded into the mount with some type of gorilla snot?

i'll order the sides also...I was planning on making my own but this is a better option at only $30 for both sides.

Nah...they just slide into place.

 

[TheJohnny]

how hard is it to take the old ones out?

Nah...they just slide into place.

What stops them from just sliding out of place? I've been baffled by this since I first saw a pic of them.

 

[TheJohnny]

yeah, what he said, bump for answer..........

Not sure of the durometer (just incase someone was wondering), but I put these in yesterday. Go here for a How To:

Anyone try these yet? they are for the side mounts. I also see that he has made replacement bushings for his friont and rear mounts that are 70 durometer, which are softer than the automatic bushings whch are 88. I need to replace mine soon, so I guess I'll try the 70's and maybe get the inserts.

Are these inserts to work in conjunction with the stock side mounts or do these inserts work with aftermarket side mounts?

Are the inserts sufficient enough to almost rid the car of the violent shaking and dash rattle?

Where can I find some side mounts?

To everyone asking how they stay in place.

Not sure on AWR, but anything else I have seen like this uses some fancy form of zipties to hold it together.

 

[Dimitrios]

The passenger side inserts are held in place via two zip ties (18" long ties work fine).

The driver's side inserts are held in place by the mount assembly in place.
