i think 2 pucks are needed for every mount you do.

i did the window weld on mine just to stiffen them up

the pucks are made from 95a urethane so similar to a hard race mount.. as long as the pucks are sealed in the mount tight then there is no difference than a regular one

the 240sx guys use them to raise the engine to prevent it from hitting the ground.

on a stock mount you have to remove all the rubber inside of it, then trim the hockey pucks to fit them in the empty mount. after that is done you can drill the whole higher than the original one to raise the engine.

I meant cut my mout braces out and cut/ weld new ones, like the pass side K mount in an EG. Raising the mounting holes up an extra 1 1/2-1 3/4 from the factory location. When i put it all back together, im thinking it should level off the axles a bit.more too.

what i did for the rear mount was just use some inserts that i had laying around, filled it up then sealed it with the inserts. it fits really snug when in place and didnt have to wait for the window weld to dry up
