Are you selling those, Brad? I'm interested! I'm sick and tired of those damn wheelhops!

Everyone who has done the urethane filling has reported dramatic reduction in wheel hop, a few people who have done just the front inserts said they din't notice that much of a difference. Also if you have a pre-98, the inserts don't fit without a new mount.

I did the front (there were no ES inserts back then anyway), then later did the rear and immediately replaced it with the SVT style rear. Some people say filling the rear is okay, but for me it gave way too much vibes to the cabin. David Z is running urethane filled on his 3.0 mounts. I think DemonSVT has the ES inserts and filled all the rest with urethane


Well, I have the Energy Susp. inserts in the front mount and they work great. It completely got rid of the wheelhop for me. I paid $15 or $16 dollars for them.

Nope, not yet anyway. Cost for someone else to produce and me to resell would be around $500, not cheap enough for me. I've looked into getting a better welder and tubing notcher to make my own for a much discounted rate, but those expensive new tools are not in my budget right now with the recent happenings on the job market front.

Hummmmmm, you could say they look exactly like them if you wanted to... wink I can tell you he wasn't interested in making any more, so don't bug him about it... If you bug him anyway, at least be ready to not get them very cheap at all because his spare time is VERY important to him to spend on his race car. I guess I'm just a sweet talker or something...

I've had them in for a year and a half, I've lost a couple of nuts off of the bolts I had in the front roll restrictor because the lock washers didn't have anything to dig into to stop the nut from coming off due to the oval bolt holes in the subframe, once I fixed that with double nuts they work really well. Never had a grade 8 bolt break yet and I've given them quite a few workouts...
