{"product_id":"billet-aluminum-upper-lower-dogbone-mount-insert-pair","title":"Billet Aluminum Upper \u0026 Lower Dogbone Mount Insert Pair","description":"The 034Motorsport Billet Aluminum Upper \u0026amp; Lower Dogbone Mount Insert Pair is engineered to fill the large voids in the factory dogbone mount, significantly limiting drivetrain movement and providing a more connected driving experience. This kit includes both the Upper Dogbone Insert and a Version 1 or Version 2 Lower Dogbone Mount Insert, along with new OEM TTY (Torque-to-Yield) installation hardware, as these bolts are one-time use per VW\/Audi specifications.\n\nConstructed from T6-6061 billet aluminum with a durable clear anodized finish, these inserts are designed to drastically reduce transmission movement during shifting and deceleration. This translates to improved shifting feel and crisper shifts. The design aims for virtually no additional noise, vibration, or harshness (NVH) transfer into the cabin during normal operation, though some users may experience low to medium NVH levels, particularly on initial take-off. The product is backed by a lifetime warranty for the original purchaser.\n\nThe Upper Dogbone Mount Insert is crucial for MQB and MQB EVO vehicles utilizing aftermarket dogbone mount inserts. It prevents the puck assembly from rotating within the subframe housing, which can otherwise bend the lower insert and cause premature wear on the factory rubber mount. This rotation can occur during aggressive driving events like burnouts with wheel-hop, potentially leading to the dogbone mount arm bending or failing. The upper insert limits forward motion of the upper puck, matching the limited motion of the lower puck when the lower insert is installed. This ensures that forces on the dogbone arm remain within its design parameters, preventing damage observed in extensive testing with various materials.\n\nTo ensure proper fitment, users are advised to visually verify their factory dogbone mount using the provided guide and select the correct version of the lower insert before purchasing. Installation is described as easy and straightforward, taking only minutes.","brand":"034","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52686638252344,"sku":"034-509-1022\/25 \u0026 034-509-6006\/7","price":98.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/658756439.jpg?v=1784875529","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/billet-aluminum-upper-lower-dogbone-mount-insert-pair","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
