Dog bone replacement mount setup... no more dog bones! Solid and it saves weight.

**grandprixfamily** · 01-04-2012

ahh, yes, finally here. now to save up money for it.

and i plan on having an aluminum cradle as well, so a "bolt in" version would be ideal. drill some holes and off you go. good for people that dont have welding access, or its just not as feasible to do so. maybe a lower second plate to act as a large washer and distribute forces a bit more.

I like it....however it looks familiar

FWIW, this is a solid version of a 96-99 Bonneville front trans mount. Except the Bonneville mounted to both the trans and engine, had some dampening built in. Solid mounts like this will become prone to breakage over time with metal fatigue from the vibrations. Another thing I've done is take a 2000-2005 Bonneville front trans mount, some hockey pucks and or a piece of softer material and drilled that into a subframe. Might be a lower cost option doing the same thing.

Here's a pic of my modified Bonne mount (96-99). There was a shock where the hockey pucks are and the big block of black is stock rubber. Never felt any vibration from it and the subframe flexed long before the mount.

anyone have pics of the gp from farther back?

Any pics for the Alum Subframe? It would be nice to have this as a bolt in. Would it be all out of Alum so that IF we wanted to could Tig it to the subframe? TIA

We have this setup on a car here making somewhere in the realm of 500whp.
He is maxing his 80# injectors and we will be going bigger with the fuel setup.
Car has virtually zero vibration in the cabin with this dogbone replacement setup.

Aftermarket cam I'm assuming?

I know my poly everything shook the ever living god out of my blue car with that thrasher cam

**Tengis** · 01-18-2012

ST4 cam, heads, poly trans mount, stock engine mount, and this dogbone replacement stuff.

**grandprixfamily** · 01-19-2012

very eager to get this on my car.

i cant wait to do equal length strut braces, no upper mounts, this setup, and make my **** gucci under the hood, lol.

**t24moore** · 01-19-2012

Its actually an st5 cam. This is one of the best mods you can do hands down. Makes the car feel like an entirely different car. You dont feel the shifts, cam, or anything else!

**Sandman** · 01-19-2012

Looking back at the photos, there's only one mount at the bell housing?

**Tengis** · 01-20-2012

Yes.

How much is this? Welding is not an issue

only 1 bell housing bolt? i see 2 in the pics.

but 1 lower through bolt joining the cradle bracket to the main bracket.

**Tengis** · 02-26-2012

Ive got two kits left. Maybe three - after they are gone then Im not making anymore. Closing this thread soon because of a lack of interest.

$125 + shipping and I will install the kit for $150 if anyone is local.
