Default One good question!!

Greetings everyone, someone may have ask this but:
why in the hell does our LS4s come with 1 dog bone instead of 2!?!? The LS, LT, LTZ all have them, why not ours!! wouldn't make sense for us to have them?

There's always the "EDIT" button


Anyway, I don't know the answer, but would venture to guess that it's b/c there wasn't room for the other one (big accessory pumps on the LS4). It hasn't been an issue for anyone (yet) and it makes replacing it even less expensive.

The dog bone is the bar that connects the upper engine mount to the radiator support mount...keeping the engine in place. Whether it's an SS or GXP...there is only one, regardless.
