So I've been complaining about the extreme violent vibrations above 65mph and suspension was one thought, the other was driveshaft yoke. Well....

I had a shop look at it and they said the suspension is fine, but the ball joints will need to be replaced sometime in the next few months because they are showing signs of wear.

After not finding anything the guy gets in the car, has the other guy stand in front of the engine, puts it in D, then mashes the brake and gives it gas. Man that engine practically leaped out of the car. That thing is definitely needing to be replaced!

So I looked on supercoupe performance and they don't have polyurethane mounts for the engine. Where can I get a pair and is that the right route on a DD? Keep in mind I'm pretty rough on this car....

i have tons of low mile factory ones.

Good one Driller... I was just getting the turbochuck link ready...

So are the solid rubber ones on supercoupe the same as oem stockers?

be prepared... you might find that the saddles the mounts sit on are broken too.
Mine were

WTF? I'm trying to contact this turbochuck guy but there is no email address nor any phone number or a place to pay for them.

I don't have outlook so any ideas?

Thanks for the spoon but you forgot my bib...now I have crap all over myself :p :D

Well that explains the "clunk"

I like when my car clunks!

but when it clunks it becomes a clunker

Then you get some CHING!

Good for you! You took that quite well. :)

:eek: That wouldn't be fun

yea it sucked had to change the hole K member, but it was broken in another place anyways.. so it wasn't JUST the motormount saddles that caused the replacement.

I've got some pics "somewhere".. I'll dig em up.

Here they are

Man that is harsh! Was that from using it while the motor mount was broke so it started to torque the saddles? That is insane!

I'm sure hoping mine doesn't look like that ;)

Fordnut: yeah that definitely explains the clunk :)

DLF: I removed the panties that were somehow crammed in my :q:q:q:q:q:q:q so I have my sense of humor back ;)

Here they are

That is awesome Tom!!

You know how to beat the piss out of a MK8...

Glad to know you! If I can help in the future, just let me know.

So are the solid rubber ones on supercoupe the same as oem stockers?

No.

The OEM are hollow and liquid filled - a.k.a. hydraulically dampened. As such they are softer and yield easier.

be prepared... you might find that the saddles the mounts sit on are broken too.
Mine were

That's one reason I didn't weld the stock mounts.

I'm trying to figure out an engine torque dampener to help the motor mounts. I have a kit but it's going to take some major modification.

derryk hurry up and replace them so i can stomp all over you at the track!!!

No prob. I think my left rear taillight is out....I guess you can tell me when we're on the track :D :p

lol well with your motor falling out i wont have a chance to tell you, i'll be the only one there at the track!

or while you are in the driveway ripping it apart i'll be blowing dual black paint roller marks all up and down your street!

HAHAHA! Black roller marks....that's ok I think that's the only chance you'll have to pass me ;)

guess he plans on towing it down the 1/4?

FAIL!

The real question is why do you have a picture of dudes like that? That is the real Fail ;)

I was funny...so I just gotta

Anyone installed or running the turbochuck HD poly mounts on their Markviii?

No problem, I'm sure I have a spoon around here somewhere.....

That was mean, Dlf. :) But very funny......

Some people simply cant grasp information unless its on the end of a baby food spoon.

I'm fairly certain that I am the first to raise the patented pink babyfood spoon here on LVC.

There is even a picture of it someplace, its even got a thermometer in the handle, so while your getting spoon fed, we can flip it around and check your rectal temperature at the same time.

So no one has these mounts installed?

Nope, I bought the rubber mounts because turbochuck said it would be 4-6 weeks. If it was a mod and not a necessity I would have waited.

im gonna do it - he said the installation should be easier for these because there not as big as the oems?

while that may be true, you still have to get the OEM ones "out".
