Overview:
The APR Pendulum Mount is engineered to replace the factory mount with a stronger, more reliable solution. Its thick, billet-aluminum construction and spherical bearing design provide superior stiffness, reducing slop in the driveline for improved shift quality and power delivery. The system also addresses the common and costly failure points associated with the factory transmission mount.
Key Features:
-
Reduces Transmission Movement: By eliminating the factory rubber bushing, the APR Pendulum Mount reduces unwanted movement in the driveline. This results in improved shifts and better power transmission to the ground.
-
Sportier Driving Experience: Expect a sportier feel during acceleration, deceleration, and gear changes, without an excessive increase in noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) when paired with the factory sub-frame mount.
-
Prevents Transmission Failure: The factory rear mounting point has been upgraded to the new MQB/MK7 platform style mount. This new design significantly reduces the likelihood of tearing out or breaking the rear bolts, which typically leads to costly repairs or full transmission case replacement.
-
Spherical Bearing: The spherical bearing in the APR mount offers far less unwanted movement compared to rubber and polyurethane inserts. It features a fully-serviceable, heat-treated race and precision-ground ball, with a self-sealing and self-lubricating PTFE lining for durability.
-
Billet Aluminum Construction: The front and rear pieces of the mount are precisely machined from billet aluminum, replacing the factory cast aluminum and stamped steel parts. Each piece is anodized black for corrosion resistance and laser-etched with the APR logo for a professional finish.
-
Replacement Bolts: The APR Pendulum Mount includes high-quality, non-one-time-use bolts that offer superior strength and longevity over the factory bolts, which are designed for single use.
-
Easy to Install: The system is straightforward to install and does not require dropping the sub-frame. It is compatible with both factory and factory-like modified sub-frame mounts. Full installation directions are included with each system.
Upgrade your vehicle with the APR Pendulum Mount to experience enhanced shift quality, better power transmission, and reduced transmission movement. This easy-to-install solution is essential for anyone seeking to improve their vehicle’s performance and reliability.
