Re: ok this is soo ghey i keep eating up my front bushings
Ok reason is the rear one is bad. If the front keeps wearing out your rear motor mount is bad, FIX replace it with new front and rear insert Prothane inserts and never worry about it again. BTW you dont need the front one motor mount friend drove his boosted (10psi) 89 civic for 2 years with out one just using the rear prothane cause they hosed the front mount beating the front crossmember to clear the header pipe.

Re: ok this is soo ghey i keep eating up my front bushings
yeah i've ran with out it for quite the while too... its just kinda nice to have it there b/c it limits the movement that much more...

Re: ok this is soo ghey i keep eating up my front bushings
do your motor mounts wear faster when your car is lowered? my friend dropped his hatch like 3 inches and he was going through motor mounts like nothing it might have been a cowidincs did i spell that right?
