| Not Ranked : 0 score do it man, you'll be happy. I have the trz dog bone RMM in the hardest bushing, delrin, not sure on the durometer rating but from what ive gathered its some where in the area of 100. Vibrations incresed a moderate amount, not too bad, but after i put on the 80 JBR PMM, it increased A LOT more. freaked me out when i first started it up and drove it haha. got used to it though. Also threw on the TRZ tranny mount(delrin). Happy as hell how it 100% eliminated wheel hop and actually hooked up 75% better from a launch in second gear @ WOT Edit: did not launch in second gear btw lol Last edited by 09speedaddict; 10-18-2011 at 01:15 PM.

| Not Ranked : 0 score well, the bushings on upgraded motor mounts are stiffer so that transfers more of the engine's and drivetrain's vibrations to the chassis and then into the cab. Rear view mirror might possibly have a lil shimmy to it at certain rpms (usually low rpms) and things of that nature. center console id say is what rattles the most on mine. Like ive said before, I've got the stiffest bushings though. Dont let this discourage you |
