Please explain to me how you "carve" out the rubber.....
You don't need the FDA urethane and you won't notice the difference between 94A and 88A, if anything fill it with 80A or 60A "flexible urethane" listed along with the 94A.
You're going to have to give up some ride comfort if you want the wheel hop and whatnot to stop, plain and simple.
Use Duct tape to seal off the other end when you fill it, and hope it doesn't take too long for it to seep in to the cavity, as it'll begin to gel in about 10 minutes.
Also, if you mix for ANY less than the recommended 2 minutes, don't be surprised when it doesn't cure right away and your car sits for another 2 days.
If you have any questions please feel free to PM me, I�d rather have you do it right on your own and not buy my mount, than come to me later after something gets messed up.
I'm not trying to be an ass about this whole thing, but I�ve seen a lot more mounts and worked with more poly than anyone on this board....guaranteed.
I took out the mount and worked on it while watching some TV. You basically get some big ass cutting pliers and cut away at the holes. Start holding on to the cut chunks and use your muscles to pry off the rubber. Once you get a good amount off, you can pull the center shaft and surrounding rubber out of the mount. Once it is out it is easier to cut off the rubber, and you are left with a center shaft covered in rubber. get a box cutter or something with a blade and carve the rubber off of the metal shaft. Clean it up as best you can and set it in the mount. Duct tape one side with mutiple layers. A good bunch a duct tape will hold the shaft in the middle and keep any poly from leaking out. I bought 90A poly, but If I had another chance I would redo it in 60A or 80A. The 90A dries hard as a rock. Mix your two parts that come for the poly very well. Pour the liquid poly into your mount and wait five minutes for it to set. Keep an eye on it so that the center metal shaft does not move around and harden at an akward angle. After five to ten minutes it is hard enough to leave alone. Let it cure for two days and reinstall. All done, $30, super easy. All it takes is some time to get the rubber out. You could heat it and melt it out, but I try to avoid playing with fire. Your only real loss of time is getting the rubber out.
