into dust boots to keep debris out of my Pro-Mounts.
Doesn't matter if they are cracked in the centre. Cut out the centres & sized (sanded & filed) the hole carefully to be round & a press-fit around the dropped centre of the cupped washer just underneath the rim.
Then smeared a little syn. grease on the top & bottom where things touch.
Pop them on & you see that their lightly compressed between the strut tower & the underside of the cupped washer. Looks almost OEM!
Now if I could just shrink them to fit the B4.
Cheers, David.

so far(!). These Mount-Savers are street-height, so that's the clearance I'm working with.
