Energy Suspension motor mount
inserts restore worn mounts and reduce motor movement. Under high performance
conditions, Energy Suspension motor mount inserts reduce wheel hop and torque movement
that can damage your vehicle! Energy Suspension Polyurethane motor mount inserts are tested to add motor support and stability to
the existing motor mounts.
Typically, Energy Suspension motor mount inserts are mounted in the "torque
mount" location of the vehicle. The two piece motor mount
insert set is designed to be used in conjunction with the
original motor mount. This design adds strength and toughness to
the stock motor mounts. The motor mount inserts solution is easy to
install or remove - returning the mount to stock configuration.
Energy suspension Motor Mount Inserts are
made of
HYPER-FLEX™ polyurethane material - to ensure long-lasting
performance, unlike bare stock rubber motor mounts. Available in
red or black color.
How Do
Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts work with Torn Motor
Mounts?
Many typical motor mounts
are made with voids in the rubber area of the motor mount. The
voids in the rubber motor mount allow the engine and
transmission some range of movement. Over time the rubber
inserts wear down and begin to tear - allowing the engine too
much movement and setting the engine out of alignment with the
motor mounts. Energy Suspension motor mount inserts fill those
voids in the OEM motor mounts. The Energy Suspension Motor Mount
Inserts help to realign the motor by suspending the mounting
point in the correct center of the OEM motor mount. By only
filling the voids that are SUPPOSED to be empty - Energy
Suspension's motor mount inserts ensure that your motor mounts
will stay aligned as they cannot move out out place.
Do Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts cause
more vibration?
If your OEM motor
mounts are new - then Motor Mount Inserts will likely increase
the amount of engine vibration felt in the vehicle. Because the
voids in the OEM Motor Mount are filled by these motor mount
inserts - there is less room for absorption of the natural motor
vibration.
However in the case of some
older vehicles with motor mounts that are in bad shape - Energy
Suspension Motor Mount Inserts can actually reduce the amount of
vibration felt from the motor. When motor mounts get old enough,
the mounting point for the mount can sag or tear to the point
where it's touching the surrounding edge of the motor mount.
This means that there is little to no cushioning between the
motor and the rest of the mount and this can cause a lot more
vibration by itself. Installing Energy Suspension's motor mount
inserts can increase the amount of cushioning in motor mounts
that have gotten that bad and ensure that the motor wont flop
about freely due to worn mounts..
How Do Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts
Reduce Wheel Hop?
|
Energy Suspension
Motor Mount Inserts are best known for their ability to reduce
wheel hop and allow high performance vehicles to put more power
into propelling the car forward. Energy Suspension Motor Mount
Inserts operate with the same principles as Solid Motor Mounts.
Many ultra high performance vehicles use Solid motor mounts
because they allow for very little motor movement. Because the
motor is held firmly in place - there is no bouncing of the
motor assembly. This allows the entire driveline assembly to
maintain a solid geometry - reducing the excess movement caused
by the otherwise violent release of power.
Basically Energy Suspension Motor Mount
Inserts offer the same performance of a solid motor mount -
without the extreme levels of vibration caused by a solid motor
mount. |

Can Energy Suspension Motor Mount
Inserts Increase the Handling of my vehicle?
Because OEM Motor Mounts are designed with extra
play and movement in their flimsy rubber motor mount inserts -
adding Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts can firm up a
number of otherwise loose points in the car. It's easier to
compare this effect to installing a strut tower bar. The purpose
of that bar is to increase rigidness in points of the vehicle
that are otherwise more open to movement in high performance
handling. The same is true for Energy Suspension Motor Mount
Inserts. Motor Mount Inserts firm up points at the front of the
vehicle that would otherwise be prone to movement in high
performance driving. While Energy Suspension Motor Mount Inserts
are in no way designed with this as their purpose - some users
have report this experience.
