Aluminum Dog Bone Mount Kit for VW Jetta Golf MK5 MK6 GTI R
Replace your factory pendulum mount with this high-grade aluminum kit designed to tighten up drivetrain geometry and eliminate unwanted flex on VW and Audi platforms. By substituting soft rubber isolators with a rigid aluminum assembly, you reduce engine rock during aggressive shifts and transfers more combustion energy straight to the rotating tires. The result is noticeably crisper throttle response, eliminated wheel hop, and measurable improvements down the track.
Benefits & Practical Tips
This unit fits naturally into both daily driving routines and focused track builds. Follow these straightforward steps to protect your investment and maximize performance:
- Prioritize installing this mount before adding forced induction or camshaft upgrades so subsequent horsepower gains translate directly to rear-wheel traction.
- Treat all mounting bolts with a mild lubricant or anti-seize compound to prevent galvanic corrosion and make future removal faster.
- Torque all fasteners to specification again after 100 miles of operation, as thermal cycling and initial load settling can cause slight bolt stretch.

Important Reminders
Professional automotive installation is strongly advised. Drivetrain modifications alter stress patterns across subframe and exhaust components; verify your exact OE cross-reference numbers before purchasing to prevent fitment gaps. Damage resulting from improper installation methods voids all refund eligibility. Monitor brightness and contrast settings may cause minor visual differences in finish appearance.
