I use a 3/8th electric impact to remove all the bolts. Then I hand tighten all of them, adding loctite to the larger 2, followed by a digital 3/8th torque wrench to finish it off. 32-34ft lbs on the 4 smaller bolts, 100-115ft lbs on the larger 2.

I’ve done this so many times it takes me 15min to swap out the mount or bushings once I’m under the car. Doesn’t matter if I’m on the ground or using my lift, the car is back on the ground and ready to go in 15 lol

Will check back when I get my v2 insert. Ty.

@apyao @CelicaGTz big thanks to both of you for taking your time and sharing your reviews! I know people love to read through personal experiences in this thread. I’m happy to know that you both are enjoying the kit and are pleased with your purchases!

@CelicaGT putting a number on expected mileage is a bit difficult. The 2 major factors on longevity come down to environment and driving characteristics.

On a 60A set with minimal track usage, low amounts of launching and no big drivetrain upgrades I would estimate 20-25k miles would be a good time to consider swapping in a new one or at least inspecting it. Although it could likely last longer. With every step up in Duro I would add about 5k mi to that number. But just know that it really varies like any other consumable. I have a confirmed customer with over 25k miles on their 60A bushing set but also another who destroyed an 80A set in 8k miles.

Impressive with that 8k.

Impressive with that 8k.

Multiple AutoX days a month. Lots of Rev Limit Dumps to Launch. Upgraded clutch kit. Yeah he put in work.

Thanks. It’s nice to have a ballpark figure and I can adjust more or less based on how I use the car but I’ll definitely keep it in mind approaching 20k miles. I plan to catch it before this point, but is it pretty obvious from the drivers seat when a bushing has reached the end of its life? Thanks for making a great product.

@CHEEKY GR-E210 can you address the benefit of any for the verus 2nd piece of their pitch mount? I'm highly torn on grabbing your 60A mount after seeing that piece, wasn't sure if there is any inherent benefit for the second piece or is it mostly useless for our use cases?

As a user, I'd say go with the 70A for improvement over factory.

Thanks for considering Delta X!

Tbh I’m not the kind of person to publicly criticize a competitors product, but I will say I didn’t see any benefit to addressing it in the design of my kit.

 

[ScottHH]

For sure 70A.
Many like me end up going to 80A without problems.

I went 70A from the start and now I'm about to buy an 80A off him when I order his front bash bar. The 70A is a good improvement but I want even more rigidity now. He's totally going to make us a front bash bar 😜

Bash bar? What is this about? First I have heard of it. Bumper does not like hitting cones!

Actually the main reason I will develop a bash bar is to include a front and jack point that actually reachable with a floor jack. It will be a great quality of life improvement for every owner who does any work on their own car!

Jeff. Did the new bushing insert come in? Do you have a new product out recently? 🤣

I don't totally understand, but can't wait to see one.
If it was something like this it would move me out of street class, and I want to stay there.
