Vert mounts are a little stiffer then the others.

Thanks Eh!...I wondered why they would make them diff. I guess to stiffen up the old ragtop? Not as much flex in the Convt.Why?

Verts flex more and are heavier. The heavier car can absorb more of the vibrations from the motor. They are also stiffer to help strengthen the front end, cause they flex. Hope this helps.
