xDJ DUBx's 03.5 Pure White LX-T

hey thanks guys,
do you think its worth it to change all of them with a better set from protegegarage? to futureproof. or you think it wont really matter.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

the stockers will go again... eventually. its up to you. aftermarket ones add to cabin vibrations.

 

[fishdonotbounce]

I would say swap the front and the sides. Get the lowest durometer mounts to decrease the vibrations. Like wagonbacker says, the stockers will fail again.

 

[mckernan]

actually, i went over the estimate....
it does say central

so wtf

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Central makes no damn sense. I doubt it's the rear cause you can't even see that damn thing unless you remove the throttle body and push a bunch of s*** aside. Either way, do yourself a favor and buy the front and both sides, swap them yourself and call it a day. It's not complicated to do it at all.

[mckernan]

haha damn
i should go back and ask for a proper answer,
but as they were changing the egr anyways, its posible they did take out the throttle body to make it easier maybe?

 

[fishdonotbounce]

Nahh. They have all the tools they need so they probably didn't. Either way you should ask them which mount it is. There are four. Front, Rear, Passenger side, and drivers side (or transmission mount).

 

[mckernan]

ok i will ask my family mecanic since he's gonna be changing my belts anyways, ill ask him to check which is bad as well.

 

[Scorch03]

While the belts are on topic, what all is involved in getting access to alternator belt to change it? Mines a bit chewed up and making some serious noise sometimes when its wet out.

 

[justanothermp5]

u just need to get under the car and undo one bolt and loosen the belt with another...check the UDP install in the how to section and it tells u step by step in there

 

[BadBandar]

Wow. Its been awhile since Dub posted. He might be really excited and running around the streets with them. Or he is frustrated with the endlinks.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

Endlinks were cake, what are you talking about? The adjusting took forever, still not how I want it. lol.

WTF GUYS!!! JACKING MY ******* THREAD!!! UNSUBSCRIBE!!! ALL OF YOU!!!

haha, jk.

Speaking of belts, mine are squealing like a b**** since I changed them.

 

[BadBandar]

sounds like u didnt mark off the tightening. When i chagned the belts in my sisters car we marked off where they were tightened to. It makes no noise.

Wheres those pics?

 

[TWISFM]

wtf post with no pics..!!! and dont tell me your not going full slammed?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I'm lower than I was so that should give you an idea

I have a couple of pics where the rear was down A LOT. I gotta eat first though. lol.

 

[Falango]

I wanna see a pic where it's slammed so hard, just for fun, lol. I played around with the adjustments for a while on mine too. I think I may even soften it a bit now that I think of it.
