New VW T5 spherical bearing top mounts

So we have had the air on the grey van for 6 months and the top mounts had to be butchered for the srtuts to work so we got some race car style 360 degree bearing top mounts made.
The van was suffering with a clonk when going from lock to lock and didn't feel to clever so needs must and one of our friends who had a similar problem with his aired out van came up with 2 prototypes of these (1 for him 1 for us).
we fitted them and instantly noticed the difference plus the other positive side effect is the van sits about 5 mm lower so happy days.
Theres not a lot of vehicles with a whopping 85 bhp with alloy top mounts leave alone T5 vans ;)

More race inspired steering mods soon lol !!!
