That's precisely why I don't like them, I know a few guys that have had
MAJOR problems with them on V8 S10 applications, and been told "Sorry, they should fit just fine, we can't/won't help you..."
Energy Suspension makes some universal poly mounts specifically for fabricating mounts with roll cage tubing, I posted a link the Overkill parts thread....
