Thread: Dogbones

i was looking online and i came across the zzp shorter dog bones...and then i came acorss the solid motor mounts. i was wondering if either of these would b a good investment? would either help out performance considerably?

btw i have factory suspension and factory motor mounts and im installing my zzp 3 inch downpipe in 2 days so consider that too please

I have a set of zzp dog bones available for purchase, they're brand new.

dont get shortened dog bones unless you have dropped your car. The mounts are really up to you...are yours shot?

no the r still good i was just wondering if there is any advantage over stock but im goin to have stock suspension until i move outta pittsburgh ha

It is all a preference of how you want your car to feel. If you go with solids, you will get more vibration, etc. than if you stick with the stockers. The response gains are there, but minimal. If yours are OK, I would stick with the stockers. There are better mods to spend money on if yours are OK.

why not? wont cars at regular height also benefit from the added torque, that is recovered by straightening out the cv shafts a little?

no. by doing this to a stock car you are forcing the axles out of alignment.

And don't do this either...

You can go to Auto Zone and buy solid rubber ones for cheap. Just ask for them.

ok thanks for the input guys...
