Product Details
Whiteline Rear Engine Dogbone Mount Kit is made for the 2012-2013 Volkswagen Golf R. Part number KDT977. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. You receive 2 brackets, 2 bushings, 2 tubes, 2 bolts, and 3 washers. Application note: Performance alloy arm: heavy duty, induces NVH. It is listed for the PQ35 chassis.
Engine mounts hold the engine in the chassis while absorbing vibration. When the rubber softens, the engine rocks under hard acceleration and when you lift off, and you may feel shudders, clunks, or a vague throttle. A new mount restores a solid hold. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Expect a moderate job of about 1 hour. A wheel alignment is not required. Working on the same car? We also list Rear Upper Outer Control Arm Bushing Kit and Front Lower Control Arm Set for the Golf R.
Features
- Bushing material: Polyurethane bushings flex far less than rubber ones.
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Self-lubricating: Grease reservoirs inside the bushing feed lubrication as it moves.
- Bushing compound: Oil, grease, ozone, and weather do not break down the synthetic elastomer used in the bushings.
