They are great on the street, but not technically legal unfortunately, due to silly regulations. I've had mine on for more than 20,000k with no wear on the poly bush at all. I can make them and sell them to you for race use only. Whatever you do with them once they're out of my hands is your business...

Love the work you have done after mine have flogged out I turned the top plate over which pulled the rubber up tight seems really tight as I don't know in depth what I've done will I have failure elseware
Currently not working so funds are very limited. Was thinking of just making a solid plate to Mount to. |

I think that for legal reasons Sox could not progress any further on this as it is considered a suspension mod and would need expensive certification.
According to the authorities, old clapped out and broken mounts are safer than an improved set. You could however if the mount is not too far gone, space the spiggot slightly so you get more contact with the rubber bush. best of luck.

I wouldnt turn the top over as it needs to pivot freely as the suspension travels and will put stress on the mount and strut shaft. You would be better off putting it back in the original position and pack it a little with some rubber etc.

Hello. Not sure if you are able to help or not. We are chasing rear upper shock mounts for a 1998 au sedan with irs. We have rang a number of places and can not get any. Is it these that you have been making or know of where we could purchase any?
Thanks Eric |
