    why not get some made in this country, there are 4 or 5 companies that would probably make some.

    I need the front roll stopper from the V6 eclipse then to fit the front poly bushes. I found that they are a lot bigger today than the Legnum mount. What upgrade work was needed.

    Glenn is sorting out a set for me and I'll order a mount from the US or here but I doubt it is stocked in the UK

    so let me get this right,
    from what I've been reading...

    the kit fits fine in all but the front role stopper,

    for that you need the MR272203 (3l eclipse spider) mount as well,
    and then you can use the front role stopper from the kit as well??

    seams a bit silly to buy a new mount just to butcher it??

    can the prothane bush not be made smaller?

    I think you may be cutting in to the holes in the bush if you try and reduce it in size or reduce it's strength. I didn't relise how small the mount was until I had taken it off. The larger mount I would think will be much better in the long run and worth the extra outlay if they are not too expensive.

    with the larger mount, would the center of the bush not sit higher up??
    and not align correctly on the bracket on the engine?

    might pay to try and find a used mount on a US eclipse forum??

    A new mount in the states is $27 but the postage is $45. Just as well to go for the new one at that price.
    If it sits higher then we may be able to drill a new hole on the bracket on the engine mount or fit some spacers on the crossmember.

    I ordered a new mount from the states at the weekend but thay have emailed me to say they won't ship to the UK even though you can open an account with UK info.
    Now waiting for dealer to get back to me with a cost but I have found another company in the US that will ship to the UK

    If you need me to order them let me know. I have a special address and can get stuff much easier from the states.

    My dad works for Napa (huge auto parts chain in the states) and has and will mail me stuff that I need

    Thanks I have ordered the one I need but I'm sure others will find your offer very useful or there may be other bits I'm after in the future
