What is a pendulum mount insert?

A pendulum mount insert, often called a 'dog bone' insert, is a component that fits into the factory transmission mount. Its purpose is to fill the voids in the stock rubber mount, reducing excessive drivetrain movement.

Will this make my ride uncomfortable?

This insert is designed to reduce drivetrain slop, which can lead to a more direct feel. While it tightens up the drivetrain, most users find the increase in road vibration to be minimal and a worthwhile trade-off for improved shifting feel.

Product Details

This is the Torque Solution Pendulum (Dog Bone) Billet Insert, designed to fit a range of popular performance vehicles like the Volkswagen Golf GTI MK7, Audi A3, and S3. It's a well-built upgrade for your car's rear transmission mount, specifically targeting the factory rubber insert. The main job of this part is to fill the voids in the stock mount, which helps to reduce unwanted movement in your drivetrain.

When you accelerate or shift gears, the engine and transmission can twist and move. The stock rubber mount allows for a good amount of this movement, which can feel like slop or vagueness when you're driving. This billet insert replaces the soft rubber with a solid piece of aluminum, effectively taking up that extra space. By limiting this movement, you'll notice a more direct feel when you shift gears and a more connected sensation from the engine to the wheels. It's a straightforward way to improve the performance feel of your car without drastically changing the ride comfort.

Installation involves removing the factory pendulum mount insert and pressing this solid aluminum piece into its place. It's a popular modification for drivers looking for a tighter, more responsive drivetrain feel.
