    Hi INA,

    If we wanted to develop poly mounts we could have done this 10 years ago when the MKIV got introduced.

    Price may be a no brainer but in 6 months to a year time when you replace the poly how much of a no brainer is it?

    Reality is poly cracks with time.It is the nature of the material.Thats why the density line was created....rubber with a harder durometer.

    I have loads of customers that come over from VF Engineering mounts to our mounts because they are tired of having to open up there mounts and change the poly components.

    In the end rubber > poly no matter what way you look @ it.
    Just wondering what Kind of rubber you are using? Are you using a thermoset polymer? Or is it a natural derived Vulcanised thermoset?

    I'm not sure there's any real issue.

    I'm a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer. I don't have *any* uni degree, let alone one in an engineering field.

    "Engineer" isn't a protected term like "doctor" or "lawyer". Unfortunately.
    Nothing to see here...

    I have a spare dogbone mount but not sure what rubber is in it ?
    I pulled it apart and here is a pic of the rubber bits......the only markings on it is 1127 and 1126 other than that its just got a few imprints from the mount itself.


    They are of no use to me and kinda look exactly like the ones i replaced these with so if they are harder than stock and someone wants them (i have a spare dogbone aswell) then send me a pm .
