as many of you have read about in my previous thread my JBA shorties were hitting the steering shaft. to fix the issue i order the Prothane MM from Brenspeed. install took around three hours. it was pretty quick. I was hesitant putting the Prothanes in from what i have read on the forum with increased vibrations and what not. When looking at the stock mounts when they were off, they really do suck. very flimsy and not firm at all they pretty much had no gurth to them

TEST DRIVE:
Upon start up i was pretty amazed. the car doesnt vibrate you feel more of a rumble. It feels like a mustang now that kind of how i can describe it. other than the the rumble i dont notice anything else diff about it. It did solve my steering issue which i was unbelieveably happy about. i took some easy turns and hard ones and they work! the front feels a bit more stiffer and the car feels like it gained back some power from the slop stock mounts. basically im able to put power to the ground more. The car shifts alot better too 3rd gear is always where i left it last haha. these should be everyones first mod haha

 

nice man glad it fixed your problem

 

Any write up's on replacing these? tacobill?

 

yea he has one. i read over it all though its pretty straight foward. i didnt have to disconnect steering, remove starter or my X pipe which was nice

 

Ill get these when I get some real HP. You just unbolt the motor lift it and replace...right?

 

yup its a direct replacement. it was very simple. from my expierence i think you should get them now! the car feels like a diff beast... tighter and i want to say faster from getting more power onto the ground. shifts i feel are dramatically improved

 

I'm glad to hear you got your steering shaft issue fixed.

 

During idle it feels like a mild cam but it is by no means annoying, For the install just do one side at a time and you'll be fine.

Like MadMike said its is a very simple install.

 

if anything it just feels wicked haha

 

On my to-do list...
