no I DON'T like the idea of that mount, I do how ever like the mount to be isolated from my tailshaft (without loss of ground clearance)

I dont want to get into a pissing match at all so this is just one persons experience
first product took a long time to get, was lost in shipping, then showd up all beat up (shipping fault). Got the rear, center, torque arm, lowers and driveshaft from MWC. Center didn't line up nicely with the studs and had to file fit the center section (could have been done in shipping but seemed flat un chipped from powdercoat). While in breakin rear made serious whine MWC had him send the center back in for "softer gears" got back and still whined but better. Then had a vibration and was told to get the brand new driveshaft balanced. Havn't talked to him lately bout it other then the vibration is still there
