Default Unibombers sexy bottom

Just had the race version installed and it is amazing. I don't know what noises everyone is hearing from these things but mine don't make a peep, although I am running Cusco motor mounts which I love btw.

Little bounce in the rear over bumps from the lock bolt but it feels better that way because I feel more connected to the road. The only bummer was that I needed an alignment due to the new driveshaft angle. Great mod.

Oh and the steering rack bushings also feel nice.

Glad you like it. The noise folks talk about is a harmonic, usually occurring from about 63ish - 72ish. With those motor mounts though I suspect you won't hear it over the NVH from the motor.

To address that NVH we worked with Kartboy so we can offer comfort versions of the bushings.
