I have the "taller" Prothane motor mounts on my car and need to drop the engine down about .5-1" for hood clearance. I was just planning on picking up a set of the energy suspension units, but then I notidiced the PS hardline running to the rack is less than .25" from the oil pan as is, if I drop the engine any farther I envision having issues.

anyone else have this problem?

what have they done to fix it?

Any other options?


don't worrie I read the sticky about motor mounts...
