Top mounts... AGAIN!!!

[Rusty]

Right chaps, just sorting some 034 high density top mounts out through Axis at $25 each so about the same as the green / blues. Thought it was worth trying something a little different. Anyone running these? I also think that I'll try and source some mount savers for the front, anyone got a pair lying around?

[Jamo]

Yes, haven't driven the car enough to really judge them.

[AndyP]

T2Andy and quattro Dan are both running these, not had any feed back though. I've got a set sitting in the garage which I must be about due to fit as it must be at least six months since I renewed them I've got std greens on at present so hopefully these will last a little longer.

[T2Andy]

Had these mounts on a month or so and the car feels really precise and direct
and no nasty noises but i also had new wishbone bushes but would recommend them

[Rusty]

Sweet. I'm looking at combining these with mount savers too

I need poly wishbone bushes, the movement on my 20k old rubber ones is

[stiglet]

How do these compare to pro-mounts? Better or worse?

[Josh-stateside]

I think the problem with the stock mounts is that they're not necessary stock ones too btw. The VW FOX aka GOL, aka, parati, aka ... a few other names. has the same mounts and I think alot of people are getting them not because they ordered fox mounts but thats what companies have sent. The car weights +- 2000 pounds vs the audi.

any more info on mount savers?
Hear them mentioned a lot but done a few searches and not found anything much about them

EDIT: Ignore me, google is my friend

Andy I still have a set of Powerflex ones for cast arms, BNIB if you want them. £65 delivered. (Which is what I paid for them)

Cheers,

Mount Saver Linky

I've always got my top mounts off VAG Parts so I believe they're the correct ones, not really had any severe wear issues, especially considering I used it on track a few times last year but when I took the last lot off the bearings were very sloppy and I think that's my main gripe with them.

The mount savers are an insert that fits standard mounts, they are therefore different to the completely re-engineered Pro mount and one heck of a lot cheaper too

'tis good of you to offer Steve but I have pressed arms so no-go.

[Rusty]

Many thanks to Joe @ Axis for his help with this, ordered 034 mounts and some mount savers off him this evening (for me anyway ) Will just have to wait for a couple of weeks now...

No Probs.

I must put up a proper for sale thread....

[Rusty]

Right, had a mail from Joe this morning saying that Mance had informed him that mount savers will not work with 034 mounts. So we'll have to wait and see how the 034 mounts get on with H&Rs on their own

[Jamo]

Ah, I thought you were talking about mount savers for standard mounts

034 are solid rubber at the top where the mount savers would fit. 034 call this the "void" and their mounts are "voidless"

In the standard mount this void exists
