Description
Upgrade your drivetrain stability and driving response with the 034 Motorsport Billet Aluminum Dogbone Mount Insert. Specifically engineered for the VW MkV/MkVI and Audi 8P/8J platforms equipped with the factory stamped dogbone torque arm mount, this insert is the ideal solution for enthusiasts seeking sharper throttle response, improved shift quality, and reduced drivetrain slop without compromising comfort.
The factory torque arm mount, while effective for everyday driving, contains large voids in its rubber construction that lead to excessive engine and transmission movement, particularly when power is increased. 034Motorsport’s billet aluminum insert is CNC-machined to precisely fill those voids, drastically improving the connection between engine, transmission, and chassis for a more direct driving experience.
Unlike polyurethane alternatives, this solid aluminum insert resists wear and deformation over time, ensuring consistent performance and eliminating the need for replacement due to material fatigue. It works in harmony with the OEM rubber bushing, offering significant performance gains without introducing unwanted NVH (Noise, Vibration, or Harshness).
Designed using CAD modeling and validated through rigorous in-house and community testing, this insert provides a perfect balance between performance and comfort. The result is a firmer, sportier drivetrain feel during spirited driving, launches, and aggressive gear changes, while maintaining daily drivability.
