The result is a restriction in engine movement, preventing wheel hop and offering more precise gear-shifting for a more positive driving experience. This, in turn, additionally prolongs the mount s life expectancy. NB: When strengthening the connection between the engine and chassis, a small increase in NVH, usually at idle, should be expected. Naturally, the harder the material used, the greater the NVH transmitted. It will not fit vehicles using the engine bracket p\/n 31401633 due to the lack of support provided by the bracket required to prevent the insert from pulling out of the torque rod.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powerflex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e PFF88-1030BLK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePack size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity required per vehicle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eVehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord — Mondeo Models — Mondeo MK4 (2007 - 2014)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFord — S-Max Models — S-Max MK1 (2006 - 2015)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLand Rover — Discovery — Discovery Sport 1 LR550 (2014 - 2019)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCross-reference OEM Numbers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e31430441 \/ LR030745 \/ 1435996\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach pack contains 1 component.
