Vibra-Technics Engine Mounts & Suspension Bushes

Type of Mount	Fast Road
OEM Part Number	IH0 199 609(B,G,E,F,H&J)

Part Specific Text and Notes

The Golf front mount reacts a large proportion of the accelaration and overrun torque and has to carry a proportion of the powertrain weight. The original VW mount was always going to be a compromise! This Vibra-Technics design is a direct replacement for the original but allows only a fraction of the engine movement. Therefore there is none of the engine inertia forces throwing the engine back and forwards under throttle on and off conditions. The car has a much 'Tighter' feel and exhaust manifolds are not subject to high bending stress. In addition the level of noise and vibration transmitted to the cabin is not greatly increased. It also gives vastly superior comfort and isolation from engine vibration over inferior aftermarket urethane mounts.

The position of all mountings is described as it would be from the driver’s seat. For example, Left Hand mounts are on the Gearbox / passenger side of a Right Hand Drive car.

Vibratechnics Uprated Engine Mounts and Suspension Bushes

Vibra-Technics products are designed specifically for high performance applications where a direct replacement for the standard mount is required along with a much higher level of engine control to cope with higher engine outputs and higher road inputs caused by fast driving. The Fast Road mounts give significant improvements in ride and handling without adversely affecting vibration isolation. The competition mounts also eliminate clearance problems with strut braces and exhaust systems, body panels etc. and improve handling whist still giving vibration isolation at high engine speeds. Competition mounts are not recommended for road use.

Vibra-Technics have developed a range of suspension bushes which are design to significantly reduce the suspension geometry change results from acceleration, braking and cornering forces. This give improvements in the car stability and cornering feel without limiting normal suspension travel. They are not hard versions of standard parts but a completely re-engineered solution, giving improved durability and handling for both road cars and competition cars requiring rubber bushed suspension.
