Decent alternative to the FM shock mounts?

Would this be a decent TCB alternative to the FM shock mounts?? Sure is better than $250.

For $160 + shipping? Nah, I'd pass.

Besides, that "conversion kit" looks like it's just a pair of OEM NB rear upper mounts. You could probably pick up the same thing from Mazda Heaven or somewhere for a lot less than $160. Heck, I got a full set of OEM Bilsteins, OEM Sport Package springs, and all four upper mounts, all assembled, for only $200. You could buy something like that, then turn around and sell the Bilsteins & the springs to recoup most of your cost.

Would the NB rear upper mounts solve the bottoming out issue the FM springs cause on an NA?? Would they even fit?

I don't think so or that would be known solution to the issue.

I don't get how this kit helps? Looks like they drilled out the center shock mount, and the 2 NB bushings may be sleeved allowing the shock rod to float.

Looks like a copy of the No-pro kit offered by R-Speed.

I have the FM Shock mounts and they work as advertised. :afro:

I have KYB/AGX with Ground Control coilovers set rather low and never bottom out.

Damn right! FM Shock mounts/AGX/FM springs = ~2.5 in clearance and no shock bottoming out!
