Rear Upper Shock Mounts

The JXB B8032A0 spherical rear upper shock mounts are engineered to optimize the performance of your Audi's suspension system. This deformation hinders the shock absorber's ability to effectively control wheel movement, maintain tire contact with the road, and manage body roll. By replacing these with precise spherical mounts, the shock absorber becomes the sole reactive component, leading to improved suspension control. These upper shock mounts enhance shock absorber efficiency, resulting in several key benefits: tires remain more firmly planted on the ground, body roll is better managed, rear-end bounciness is reduced, and the vehicle's response time to driver inputs is decreased. Essentially, they allow the shock absorber to perform its intended function without compromise from the mount. Crafted from premium materials, the JXB B8032A0 features a robust 7075 Aluminum body with a durable black anodized finish for corrosion resistance. The core of the mount incorporates an oversized, PTFE-lined stainless steel racing-spec spherical bearing, coupled with a 17-4 PH stainless steel adapter sleeve to ensure maximum strength and longevity. These mounts are also fully rebuildable, offering a long-term solution for performance driving. In terms of weight savings, each JXB shock mount weighs 10.4 oz, compared to the OEM mount's 15.4 oz, resulting in a total saving of 10 oz per pair. An optional offset inboard configuration is available, which provides over 10 mm of additional inner tire clearance. It is crucial to ensure you have at least 10 mm of clearance on your shock bodies before selecting this option. These mounts are designed for B8 A4/S4/RS4 & A5/S5/RS5, B8 allroad, and B8 Q5/SQ5 models.
