The ECS Tuning?Spherical Dogbone / Pendulum Mount is specifically designed for the Audi DQ500 7-Speed DSG-equipped models to drastically reduce wheel hop by controlling the fore/aft motion of the driveline.?Our state of the art design starts at a custom machined, billet 6061-T6 aluminum bearing housing?that contains a stainless steel, teflon-lined spherical bearing. This bearing replaces the factory-designed rubber bushing, featuring?all weather seals that?capture the spherical bearing to?keep the elements out and keep?the bearing operating?maintenance-free. Next, our pendulum arm is also machined from?billet 6061-T6 aluminum to connect the bearing housing to the subframe mounting bushing.?
Our Spherical Pendulum Mount allows for smooth power delivery through the driveline and straight to the tires, all with very minimal chassis feedback to balance comfort with performance. A must have for any vehicle driven aggressively! Proudly designed and manufactured in the U.S.A.!?
