mounts and strut bars

Are the polyurethane engina mounts and strut tower bars any good and usefull for a cav with a stock suspension? Also, will they make the ride unbearable? What about ease of install?

thanks

Re: mounts and strut bars

Engine mounts are good and pretty easy to install on a cavalier. Couldn't tell you about struts thou. A cavalier engine starts to have a little shake around 75k miles which i've noticied on quite a few cavaliers, so a mount is a good asset. Especially if you like going 85+

Re: mounts and strut bars

Strut tower bars are a fine tuning deal. If you want to feel something, get your self some anti-sway bars. Oh and motor mounts are fun as shit. Just be prepared to have your dash rattle alot especially on an auto for the first few weeks of usage. Then they break in a little bit and its not soo violent and your get use to it. Besides the girls love those low frequency vibs.

Re: mounts and strut bars

^^ Longer than stock ones will. Polyeurathane will last longer than rubber when exposed to elements. They've been out for a long time now and i haven't heard about them breaking or going bad in the 3 years i've been into the cav scene.
