That's what happens when you put a Saturn V rocket in a CLS

I heard from the fabricator yesterday that the mounts have shipped.

Once Excelerate has received them and looked them over he'll ship me a set. With this being mid-week, I expect it'll be next week before I get them.

Man, I really don't want extra vibrations. RUF87, did they make them a tad bit softer this time around? I guess we'll have to wait until you get the new ons in.

You may have to stick with OEM if you dont want vibrations.

Ruf / Josh, Im still happy to test the 6MT mounts if need be.

As Civicdrivr said, you will get some vibrations. It's not too bad with the current set up . . none of my passengers notice it . . you only feel it in the steering wheel. But to be honest, I've driven some lower end "factory" cars, like my son's Prelude and it's not much more than that. It's just not going to be "luxury smooth".

Feel like driving to Texas and have a motor mount mod meet? And the weather here will make you feel right at home.

i won't mind cabin vibrations, i've just recieved my OEM mounts, and i plan to poly fill them before installing, but i'm sure they won't last long anyway.

eh...it's not luxury smooth as it is now, being lowered + 225/45 tires. I may have to still dive into these and just resale them if needed.

I know you don't mind vibrations if you're talking about poly-filling. lol I did that before on my 240sx and the throttle response was perfect, but vibrations were crazy.

The fabricator told me over 2 weeks ago he was ready to ship . .

Let's hope they found some last minute changes that are worth the wait.

Now you know what I've been dealing with for over a year. This industry is horrible with ETA's. It's rare a company can stick to a deadline.

Guys, if you need mounts, replace them. RP, as you said in another, when one mount is bad, it will cause stress on the others. Not to mention that it causes stress on many other components as well.

These mounts are still in the testing process. Once they test OK they need to go to manufacturing. Its not going to happen in a month. Its going to take some time.

I hate to say this, but if your front one is bad the chances are pretty high that the side mount is bad. There's a small black module looking like thing attached to the side mount. When the side mount experiences too much movement it breaks a seal and a brownish fluid runs out. If you have a white car you might be able to tell.

As for places to get one, a lot of people use Delray. Or you can see if anyone likes the OE ones on eBay, Amazon, etc.
