Default Upper Link Mount

Hey guys,
I have broken the mount to hold the upper links on the diff:

The part in the middle.
I am just wondering if there is any aftermarket options out there? It will only break again.
Thanks

Hot Racing, Integy, Xtra Speed, Cappu, Boom Racing and YSS have aluminum link mounts for the upper 3-link available. Some of them call it a gear box roll mount.

Don't like the steel or brass pivot balls peened into the aluminum mount, Integy and Cappu quality isn't great, Hot Racing is a little better and I don't know much about YSS, Boom Racing or Xtra Speed.

Some/most of these are shipped from Honk Kong, China, etc..

These have replaceable pivot ball's, I would replace them with plastic pivot balls before putting the mount into service.

You could take this opportunity to convert to 4-link, a lot of higher quality options for a 4-link mount/axle truss. Plus the aluminum 4-link truss will add a little strength to your axle assembly. Just another option to consider.

That would be my choice if I were in your shoes. The 4 link will perform better than the Y style 3 link as well.

I use the aluminum STRC upper link mounts on the differentials.
