Hey guys, just installed my steeda passenger side mount, and I love it hehe, car feels great.
One question, what prevents the main bolt/nut holding the mount to the bracket through the center from loosening over time from vibrations?

IIRC...that bolt is a stretch bolt. The bolt actually is stretched (minutely) after the wieght of the engine etc is applied. That would keep the bolt from backing out.
