It'd probably be best to get a hold of them through their website as they haven't posted in a year..
So much for advertising..so little for progress.

Again the quality and fitment are outstanding.
any more info from you would be killer on this!

Good luck. Last time I contacted L7 over a year ago they had no intentions of doing another run. Last a checked a few months ago, they still hadn't even had any activity on the company FB since over a year ago.

i think honestly its such a bitch to install they haven't had another run on this. I will let you guys know and I took me a while to get this "used" one but im hoping it will solve my issues, if they dont run another one I just also bought a new oem mazdaspeed diff mount.

So I ripped and broke off the tabs off the subframe holding the diff together.

So first I had to pull the car apart, cut out the old broken subframe, cut a new 3/8ths square, notch it and then weld it back into the subframe

I bought a badass custom front diff mount from "lucky10" Lucky-10 | Research Design Fabrication, took the hard bushings out and used softer energy poly bushings in it. Bought some delrin rear subframe bushings and installed a bumpstop above the diff too.

Just wanted to update this thread and so far so good. Put at least a few hundred miles on the car and a a few autocross events. I'm very happy with the results!

And respectfully I would like to update this thread.
Seeing that Level Zero is still a registered member it would only be Respectful to that Member if any Future postings about Differential mounts by OTHER Companies would be placed in ANOTHER Thread instead of THIS ONE.
You Don't walk your dog and let him crap on the neighbor's lawn..and not pick it up..sort of thing...
Ok Guys??
Thanks.
