I purchased the motor mount inserts from kirkosaurus and installed the front only so far as i have not had a chance to do the rear yet. With the front installed it causes a vibration at idle which is more then before ( yes i know it can cause this) My question however is, is it safe having the extra vibration? will it cause damage to anything or premature wear?
Thanks all!! Ps: Even with just the fron ton the car feels so much more responsive and tighter. no hesitation when you push the gas anymore just smooth sailing. I would highly recomend to anyone thinking about these. |

What you need to worry about with loose mounts is the exhaust system. My dad had a shop do a engine replacement to his car, they didn't tighten the mounts properly..long story short the engine literally flipped sideways breaking the exhaust manifold...so tighten them up!!!!!
