Rear Motor Mount

[RDgolfer]

I started this thread to see if anyone has replaced their rear motor mount and how it affects performance.

I am waiting on the aftermarket to release on for our car, I think its a must!

I think there are already a few out right now, if I'm not mistaken. And no doubt I am installing this...the last thing I want is the goddamn engine banging into the firewall!

you are mistaken, although Cobb has one coming for march ish. as was told by cobb themselves. cobb told me whatever they have for the focus st they are working on for us.

Thats good to know, I will definitely be picking up a Cobb mount as soon as its released!

Steeda UK: part no. 555-4029....it's out of the UK but I knew there was one available for the FiST

You are correct Sir .. as well as Drifter I think redid his own with a stiffer poly rubber
anyway here is a link to the Steeda Part

I will be waiting for Cobb prob though

$275 USD and thats before shipping? haha, I am going to wait for Cobb, if it is priced any where around what they sell the FoST mount for, its going to be half the price of the Steeda

this is true but it is engineered for fiesta, not sure if I would put it into my st. ill wait for one engineered for my exact application. good find though.

Yeah, not buying that either...just proving a point...anyway the wait is on

Yes, I saw that it said "compatible" with the MK7...

So this thread is somewhat premature...maybe it will be relevant someday....see you in Spring

No worries man, its going to be nice to have thread to compared the different mounts when they all start coming out! I think cp-e might do one too, probably FSWERKS and a few others but the Cobb one might be the benchmark!

 

[airjor13]

I take comfort in knowing its like a 10 minute job to replace the mount once the car is up in the air!

I don't consider the ST an MK7. to me its MK7.5 so nothing for 7 is going to be good enough for 7.5

What puzzles me is that Mountune UK does not seem to think it is needed yet .. or maybe I missed that too.. This will be a EASY mod when it gets release and I too have it on my to do list ...

Ya that is strange, maybe they drive their car very gingerly? Lol
I know in stock form, that 1st-2nd gear shift at WOT sounds terrible. I'm waiting with anticipation for Cobbs

What I really am concerned with if there is going to be excessive noise or vibration after install and which manufacturer addresses this the best
