1*2 Engine damper

[Da]

Never seen these before, are they a good idea or not?

Surely the engine needs to flex to a degree!?

Surely they're just the same as a tailgate gas strut, means they still move but the movement is softer, thus reducing the jumping effect.

Yeah I guess they could be, to be honest the advert really doesn't give much information.

There is a link on here of someone whos got one.

TBH i think £90 is a bit ott too.

You could probably make something pretty similar for cheaper.

no its a damper, not a gas strut.

+ the guy will take £65 for them

Its just like getting a new mount. It will make driving smoother, as would solid mounts...
