Rear Motor Mount

[Azkyrie6]

I ordered a PRL unit from Axion. Just waiting for PRL to ramp up production. I have been waiting 3 months.

Do you know if those increase vibration at idle?

Reported to be the very mild. Some say no difference from OEM. Mine still hasn't Arrived

I’ve only done 3 hard pulls. Didn’t notice any wheel hopping and shifts have thus far been smooth . I wonder how much we’ll get by upgrading RMM

Looks like I need to return the hasport one I received by mistake. Didn't realize this was holding things up.

I replied to this thread. Am interested in the PRL since it's the softest and still rubber. Not finding much else in the FL5 Forums and stay off of FB.

PRL RMM

Edit: just realized that's an Si thread.

Well damn! Curious to hear what you think when you do get it

I tried to install the PRL rear motor mount but failed miserably so I want to ask advice from you all that had installed it. I was able to remove the OEM motor mount but I could not insert the PRL mount. The chassis area was extremely tight that I could not push it in. I even used a ribber mallet to force it in but to no avail. What did I do wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You are supposed to use a crow bar to pry the motor up for it to clear. I was by myself, so I used a jack towards the front of the motor until it lined up.

That is why it did not line up! I will try again tomorrow. Thank you for the advice!

Good luck, I was lucky and saw another vendor's install instructions (27 Won maybe?) that mentioned that part. Installing my PRL front pipe was worse, that bastard did not want to line up on both ends and without studs in the back it sucked.

Wow, nothing is easy I guess. My next project will be the PRL HVI when they send the first batch, and then the down and front pipes. Let’s see how much i get done….

If the mount is hanging up then it probably isn’t going in straight. Try rocking the engine forward to get the mount’s front bolt into its slot. That should get the mount aligned well enough to go the rest of the way into its bracket on the front subframe.

The mount isn’t quite symmetrical longwise. Is the PRL engraving pointing up or down?
