Hi Remi,

I replaced the rubber mounts on my Classic Mono in May after 2,200 hours and 
have
now put 100 hours on these new rubbers and I am pleased to say that there is
no sagging evident at all so far.

Incidentally, I used new rubber mounts bought from Europa a few weeks before.

the engine is sagging (2 degree pitch down measured at the propeller flange).
This clearly comes from the new rubber mounts (purchased from Europa) which
are softer than the originals (supplied with the kit back in 1999) .  Has anyone
experienced a similar problem? Is anyone aware of a modification regarding
the characteristics and/or installation of the rubber mounts between 1999 and
now ?
