What is a pendulum mount, or dog bone mount?

A pendulum mount, commonly called a dog bone mount, connects your transmission to the vehicle's chassis. Its primary job is to absorb vibrations and control the movement of the transmission during acceleration and deceleration.

What's the benefit of a polyurethane bushing over a rubber one?

Polyurethane is a denser and stiffer material than rubber. This means it allows for less flex and movement in the mount, leading to a more direct feel in the drivetrain and improved shifting performance.

Does this mount come with all the necessary hardware for installation?

This kit includes the Torque Solution pendulum mount with its integrated polyurethane bushing. It is recommended to inspect and potentially replace any associated hardware, such as bolts and nuts, during installation as they may be reused from the original mount.

Product Details

What you get in this kit is a Torque Solution pendulum mount, often called a dog bone mount. This part connects your transmission to the chassis, and it's designed to reduce drivetrain slop and improve shifting feel. It's a well-built replacement for the stock mount, which can wear out over time, leading to a mushy connection between your engine and wheels.

This mount is made with a solid polyurethane bushing, which is stiffer than the rubber found in factory mounts. This means less flex and a more direct feel when you accelerate or shift gears. It's a popular upgrade for many Volkswagen models from around 2005.5 through 2017, including cars like the Jetta, Tiguan, and CC. You'll notice a more connected feel to your drivetrain after installation, especially during hard acceleration or spirited driving.

When you're replacing this mount, it's a good time to inspect other transmission and engine mounts for wear. A worn-out dog bone mount can put extra stress on other components, so replacing it with a solid unit like this can help keep your drivetrain feeling tight and responsive.
