Is there anyone on the board that has received and installed the Delsing Klunk Fix Brackets
If so, what are your impressions?

I installed them at the beginning of Oct and have nothing but praise for them. The "Klunk" is gone, and the rear is stiffer. The day after I installed them I autocrossed, and they transformed my car back to neutral handling. The stock bushings were realy worn, and one was ripped through.

No problems with mine either. My klunk is gone and now the only noise is my subwoofer rattle.

I am about to get my 3rd set of 156E's. I know that somewhere down the road Mazda's warrantee and patience will run out with me. So when that day comes I am hoping I will have a set of Delsing's to install. I know how the loose end auto-x short comings happen because my brackets failed days before an event and i was looser then a tuesday nite whore.
Anyways I digress. Thanks for the info, my name is on the waiting list and hopefully (wishfully) I will get a set.

With new bushings or the Delsing stuff your car will be looser since it's stiffening the rear end. My car was having a tendency to push with the old bushings, and now it's neutral with a lot of lift-throttle oversteer.

the use of the words "lift throttle oversteer" actually just turned my interest toward these. i think i'll be doing more research now. thanks
and i think he meant looser as in "suspension not as tight."

If you don't buy the brackets then you are doing yourself and your car a HUGE disservice...They are worth twice the price. (mswerd)(bump)(mswerd)

Well mine was oversteering like a mofo even stock so either way the car handles with the tenacity of Rosie O going after a wayward Chili dog :) The brackets will save you from the 2-3 times yearly dance known as the "New bushing mambo."

Sent the guy an email and I haven't heard back from him. My Klunk is out of hand now. It got worse after I lowered the car. Anyone else have that happen to them?
Does anyone have a number for the guy who's selling them? And what was the price?
Thanks
Mike

Just one thing about the bracket set: it does NOT include bushings. I am pleased with the preformance of the brackets; they allow the car to handle like it should. However, the kit does not come with the bushings pictured and alluded to on the website and so forth. You have to buy those seperately. I got mine from Summit, and they were like 20-30 bucks. So just keep that in mind. Other than that, they seem to be working quite well. I personally have a little squeaking issue that I need to work out, but i think it has to do with the fact that I'm not using his end links, but AWR's (stupid me, i bought them b4). So buy his.
