    Revshift warranty??

    I had an unfortunate incident parking my car (SLOWLY), I was backing into a spot on sunday and Heard a BANG!, the car stopped and I realized my exhaust flange where the header meets the exhaust caught on a tall sewer cover. The force pulled the whole drivetrain forward, ripping my R/S revshift mount out and pushing my A/C belt tensioner into my radiator, causing a huge coolant leak.

    So, How does Revshift deal with their lifetime mount breakage "warranty"?? Ive only had the mounts sice november and my swap wasnt on the road until around Christmas..
    I dont mind paying for a mount but Im actually wondering if I should go for the AKG ones which fit into the correct holes in the subframe (so Im told)

    AKG mounts fit better, and are engineered to take the differing angle of the 24v into account.

    if you have the money, buy AKG. I have them and love them.

      I just ordered the AKG's. I wanted them for a while anyway.. It was a little disappointing to find out how the revshifts dont really fit, but that was after I already had them.

        I've seen molding problems with Revshift which is enough reason to never use them. AKG or Vorshlag mounts are best. Don't even bother with the Powerflex. My diff mount failed they didn't cover it under their warranty.
