Billet Aluminum Dogbone Mount Insert Pair

The 034Motorsport Billet Aluminum Upper & Lower Dogbone Mount Insert Pair is engineered to fill the large voids present in the factory dogbone mount, significantly limiting transmission and engine movement. This results in a more direct and connected driving experience, with crisper shifts and improved throttle response. Constructed from T6-6061 billet aluminum with a clear anodized finish for durability, these inserts are designed to work in conjunction with the factory rubber mount and the upper dogbone insert. Unlike polyurethane options that can degrade over time, this billet aluminum solution offers long-lasting performance. The kit also includes new OEM torque-to-yield (TTY) installation hardware, as the original bolts are single-use. While the lower insert alone fills voids and reduces slop, the upper insert is crucial for preventing damage to the dogbone mount arm during aggressive events like wheel-hop. The upper insert limits the forward motion of the upper puck, preventing the bending moments that can lead to arm failure. When used together, the upper and lower inserts ensure the dogbone mount functions as designed, even under extreme conditions. 034Motorsport rates the NVH levels for this product as LOW-MEDIUM. While idling NVH is not expected, some minor NVH may be noticeable during initial take-off. Fitment requires visual verification of your specific factory dogbone mount, as some MQB models may differ. Please consult the provided guide to select the correct Version 1 or Version 2 lower insert.
