This may have been posted already, but I did a search and came up with nada! We all know that when you install the Kirkosaurus Engine Mounts, the vibration of the car at idle is increased due to the engine mounts being much more stiff. That's not what this topic is about. What I would like to know is does the vibration reduce after a while? Perhaps the mounts need breaking in and continues to shake the life out of my steering wheel until it breaks in? I know a lot of people say a little bit more vibration is added, but my type of vibration is CRAZY! It feels like I'm holding a jackhammer when I'm holding the steering wheel. Only at idle though, while driving and the rpm's are above 1500 it's pure beautiful!
-Thanks in advance for all the info, Ryan |

are you guys using solid mounts?
i sent my engine mounts to a suspension shop and they filled mine with Nolathane (another brand for polyurethane bushes) and they also made the same little movement gaps that my stock rubber mounts had. still rattles like hell like a racing car or a bus, but nothing as bad as if i had solid mounts? which would be like having ur engine welded in -------------------- Mike W
