APR Cradle Bushing - Billet Stainless-Steel / Aluminum Pendulum Mount MQB (7 Speed DQ381)

APR performance part: ball joint Dogbone Mount, designed and manufactured by APR for Volkswagen, Audi, Seat and Skoda platforms.

Technical features:

• Reduces gearbox movement: by removing the original rubber bushing, the APR system limits play in the drivetrain for more precise gear changes and better power transfer to the ground. Combined with the original subframe bushing, it provides a sportier feel on acceleration, deceleration and gear changes, without excessive increase in noise and vibration (NVH).
• Spherical joint: far less unwanted movement than rubber or polyurethane inserts, made possible by the revised rear mounting hardware. The joint is fully disassemblable and serviceable, with heat-treated race, precision-ground ball and self-lubricating, self-sealing PTFE coating.
• Billet aluminum and billet stainless steel construction: the front and rear parts replace the original cast aluminum and pressed steel parts with precision-machined, particularly strong components.
• Black anodized finish
• Replacement hardware: the original bolts are single-use and must be replaced when fitting a new mount. The APR system includes reusable bolts, stronger and more durable than the originals.
• Easy installation: does not require lowering the subframe and remains compatible with original or original-type modified subframe bushings. Complete installation instructions included.
