Just purchased the TTR upper mount. In the instructions it says to replace the 18mm bolts. So I called the 2 dealerships in town for the part and said they don't have it. They also searched in their database for the bolts and could not find them. I went to Lowes and Home Depot and had no luck. Is it absolutely necessarily to change these bolts or could I get by? Is there a major risk for not switching them? Thanks.
I didnt replace mine. I just put some blue locktight on the old ones and reinstalled them. They have been in for a few months w/o any problems.
I didn't replace mine either. It's been almost 2 years now since I put mine in. You'll be fine if you reuse the stock ones.
Cool, thanks for the replies. I think I'm gonna try to put it in today, if it doesn't rain. Thanks again.
i had the rk sport top mount on my 02 ls sport.
i used the stockers, it was aweasome. great mod.
the TTR mount looks pretty solid too.
good luck with it man, FYI my cavs stock mount was DEAD when i removed mine, i didnt realize how much it vibrated lol, after the smms it vibrated less!!!

Keith,
when i took my stock one out, wow, 30k miles and the rubber was all torn. When I held the mount sideways, the piece would sag, it couldn't hold itself up. After the install, wow, i can tell a difference. Seems like it pulls harder through the lower band. A 15 min install. Great mod, IMO, as others have said. Thanks for the help guys.
off subject, i can't decide if i want to shell out 499 for hp tuners or save up for something else. I think hp tuners will be most beneficial since im thinking about cams in the future. donno though? I really like hp tuners; however, i doubt they make something comparable to it that is cheaper.
might as well call it $650 because everyone will tell you to get the pro version
