As some may know, my car is lowered 60mm and has 17s on it. I like it , just not when the engine mount bolt snaps! It tends to be because of the parts inside the driveshaft wanted to come out!

I can change the driveshaft and replace the bolt but eventually it will just do it again because the shaft was never designed to ride at such an angle. Anyone on here had similar problems and overcome them? Is there some kind of uprated driveshaft and mounts?

(I know, smaller wheels would help, but I don't wanna be defeated!! smileys/smiley7.gif )

you could get some uprated driveshafts but eventually they will die aswell
