ajacks8 is on a distinguished road
For those with coilovers or LOTS of experience with front mount issues...

I recently picked up a set of KW V3's for my 4.8is because my B6/H&R combo causes oem top mounts to blow out after 6-8mo. My fear is that running lemforder top mounts with the KW's will result in a similar annoyance? Upon researching, I did find AN alternative (the day after buying KW's). It was on titansuspension.com. They sell a solid aluminum top mount for THEIR coilover setup for e53. While they claim that they are designed specifically for THEIR coilover setup...it appears to look like they could be universal. I'm in search of impressions with factory top mounts now that many have switched over to BC Coilovers, and possibly others? Have the top mounts been an issue? Has anyone seen anything besides factory top-mounts? I am currently running the K-Mac adjustable plates, but they screech and don't seem like they will last all that long (at least while over my Bilstein setup). I had never run them before a month ago, but with all that screeching at low-speed turns (parking)...I cannot imagine them lasting. Anyway - I would love some feedback on others' experience or advise on the matter of LONG-TERM top mounts! Thanks!
