Hi,
Is the little round bush that bolts to the sub frame pron to breaking or wear?
I'm putting in an order for some mounts and I was wondering whether to get one.

Thanks, Yeah I was thinking that I've never seen one fail before.

Would you say worth changing on a 130k car?
I do feel the engine rotate when going on and off the throttle, the reason I'm changing all the mounts.

It certainly can't hurt.. Just changed mine on my s16 and noticed a minor improvement. The old one was absolutely hanging though.
