APR's pendulum mount replaces the factory cast aluminum and stamped steel dogbone mount with a two-piece assembly machined from billet 6061 aluminum and billet T304 stainless steel. A fully serviceable PTFE-lined spherical bearing with a heat-treated race and precision-ground ball takes the place of the factory rubber bushing, removing slop from the driveline for sharper shifts and cleaner power transfer to the ground, with a sportier feel under acceleration and deceleration and no excessive NVH increase when paired with the factory subframe mount. The aluminum piece is anodized black, the stainless piece is electropolished for corrosion resistance, and the APR logo is laser etched on each side. Installation does not require dropping the subframe, and new bolts are supplied because the factory bolts are one-time-use.
