Default |Dezod| Energy Motor Mounts

Just as an FYI, the shipment arrived, and only BLACK are left in stock after all of the back orders on them. Thanks to all that have ordered!

vibration is very little after a few miles chad.. it will feel a little sturdier then stock and maybe vibrate like u have the a/c on... it will make your motor feel rock solid and not slushy like before... eventually it will feel like oem but not perform like oem...

Are motor mounts hard to install? Would this dampen better than an ETD?

i didnt have experience with ETD but from what i've heard its not only better but the right way to do it.. i've heard broken etd in the past too.. the front is easy but the rear is a PITA thats why i had a shop installed it haha, they didnt know what was coming.. 3 set mounts will surely do the job

if you have some basic mechani knowledge its very simple to do.. the hardest one is the back agreed.. but you can take out all of the inserts to all of the mounts in less then 10-20 minutes... its not hard at all. hardest part will be re-installation as u might have to rock the motor a tad but nothing to complicated.. the front and tranny are cake... the only hard one is the back..

to press the motor mounts in the brackets i would suggest using some packing grease or wd40 and a bench clamp... u can use a C clamp but it takes a while that way... u dont need to take to a mechanic to press it in.. just some good elbow grease and patience.

also ONCE ALL THE MOUNTS ARE IN the vibration is very little... ppl complain about alot of vibration when they have only the front or front and tranny one in but thats common sense when u have half the product installed!!

These motor mounts are a lot cheaper than an ETD. I'm just afraid about the install. It sounds like a beast. How much did you pay for install? And Paul, you wouldn't have a write up would you?

its gonna take about an hour or 2 to get it all done... its not hard.. just time consuming.. the ETD is simple to install also but its a bandaid and more expensive.

if u have any ?'s PM me... its very very simple!!!

MANN... you guys are tempting me... LOL I'll have to think about it right now. I have a lot on my plate to accomplish this winter break for my car. I may have to add this to the list though. I'll have to ask a local friend if he can help me out. Maybe if I do, I can have a true write up for it.

I ordered them from Dezod a couple of weeks back but it was still out of stock then. I got a call today (even though it was at 6:45am! Guess it was 9:45 in NY, haha) and they're shipped out. Great product, great service! Can't wait to put it in my car for some less wheel hop! Thanks Paul!
