Default Update

I received the poly mounts from Olthoff Racing and just finished the install. Pretty straightforward and took about 2 leisurely hours. It did require cutting off a portion of the original pods that mount to the chassis, so the new bracket fits onto it. The original RH motor mount was broken, split rubber. It must be the root of my original problem. Idling at 800rpm, there is no visible shake on the hood now, whereas the whole body used to shake. I thought the poly would transmit more vibration from the motor; but on the contrary, she runs much smoother now. I highly recommend this mod, especially for the BB SPF crowd.
