that site is very user unfriendly... you have to register, give a stool sample and still be verified to gain access to photos...

the linkage can be summed up as its throttle by wire... and I'm sure its bitchen... but for me its beyond what is needed

back to mounts and truss bars...

ours is very similar but it uses heim joints... and it does the job even with rubber mounts in the car, I still have rubber ones in my car currently...

Sorry but I'm not a fan of heim ends for a brace like that. I'm in the bearing biz so I have seen what happens to heim ends when they get worn out in industrial applications. Unless those are aerospace or racing spec rod ends.

they are high end chromoly race strength heims... it was our 1st generation kit

So Anthony,
when is ISP going to get some more of those bad puppies ( Truss-Bar ). Oh and I tried looking for the stock sub-frame mounts on the ISP site but could not find a "set". Do I have to buy them separately? Does ISP sell harder (not solid ) sub-frame mounts?

Thanks for all of the help.

My forums are very user friendly, but they are private and require user registration before most areas can be accessed.

The reason for this is simple:
I share lots of new information on new products and theory in my forums. The sharing of this information is critical and keeping the forums private has provided the security necesary while informing th following of what we are developing..

It's simple. Register. Await admin qualification and then you can log in with no future complications.

Or you can whine about it.

Critter1, so what is the solid mount made from? I see ISP is making Alluminium (?) mounts; these look like Urethane (?) or some super dense rubber.

So what about the solid aluminum sub-frame mounts? will they go into production?

Sun Jul 03, 2011 4:17 am

I was interested in these too. I sent Alex at ISP an email a couple days ago and seems they don't make them anymore. :(

subframe mounts are 100% in stock as for the truss bar, we are currently testing version 2.0 with improvements made to be more affordable to the type 3 community
