Anyone for a dog bone mount?

[Tim]

cos theyre softer than other aftermarket solutions so have less chance of causing extra vibration

I know that the OEM mounts use a very soft rubber insert and deteriorate.

My question was besides the ease of installation, why would you spend $100 on this as opposed to just replacing your OEM dogbone with new rubber/stronger inserts? I mean, the arm is basically the same, but it's the rubber bush that is different, right?

correct but thats how they make them unfortunately u have to buy the arm and bush together. If i could buy just the bush i would but INA are the only company that make a 50a rated bush whilest the other companies make inserts rated at 70a.

Its still ok for $100 u get a new arm where tuners like APR sell just the bushes at $100

Do these things need to be replaced regularly?

and the after market ones you fit yourself are like $60.00 or was when i bought some. $100.00 i thought that was a good price man times are tough.

Thank you. That is exactly what I was wondering.

I'd like to get one of these but it's a bad time of the year for cash! Will try my best to squeeze one into the budget. I'm sick of my car lurching like a mad-man between changing gears.

i know all three cost me 500ish when the $$$ was good, i got a price for all three for my gf audi and was over $600.00

The link to the voxtex thread quotes 90USD for the dog bone which are advertised in this thread for 100 AUD delivered to Sydney, soooooo was wondering if there was a deal to be had seeing that the three together is advertised @ 300 USD so around 450 aud or less would be tasty.

Well the group buy price is improving this hopefully. Just waiting on Costa to hear back from them. If I have to pay more for all three so be it, I just don't want to stuff things up by sending the cost for everyone over the import duty threshold.

that would be nice but the dog bone is the lightest of the bunch. shipping maybe the killer.

Im keen for one of these, however the BFI Stage 1 ones are 60A (softest of the brand names) and cost US$25 + delivery. I guess with the current exchange rate that would still work out to be ~AUD$50-60 delivered which makes the $100 for these ones pretty reasonable given you dont need to try to refit the bushes yourself, just change the dogbone.

Hmmm, if its $100 to my door (Melb) put me down for one.

Count me in if they suit the Bora V6 4Motion (I suspect possibly so since they fit the R32).
