ERS Evo 5–9 RS Differential Mounting Kit V2

Description

ERS Evo 5–9 RS Differential Mounting Kit V2 — Reinforced Rear Differential Mounting Solution

Designed for Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution enthusiasts who demand a stronger and more reliable rear drivetrain setup, the ERS Evo 5–9 RS Differential Mounting Kit V2 is an ideal upgrade for Evolution models running an RS-type rear differential configuration.

The rear differential mounting system plays a critical role in keeping the differential securely positioned within the rear subframe and chassis. Under hard acceleration, aggressive cornering, launches, track use, and high-performance driving, the differential is subjected to substantial movement and drivetrain forces. Upgrading the mounting arrangement can help provide a more secure and robust foundation for the rear differential.

The V2 version has been developed as an improved mounting solution for Evo 5 through Evo 9 applications, making it an excellent choice for restoration projects, RS conversions, performance builds, and motorsport vehicles.

Designed for Mitsubishi Evolution 5–9

This mounting kit is intended for the highly popular Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 platform.

These generations of Evolution are well known for their powerful turbocharged engines and advanced AWD drivetrains. When power levels increase or vehicles are subjected to aggressive driving, the rear differential mounting system can experience considerably greater loads than it would under standard driving conditions.

A reinforced mounting solution can therefore be an important upgrade for owners who want to improve the overall strength and security of the rear differential installation.

Ideal for RS Differential Conversions

The RS specification Evolution uses a different rear differential arrangement from the AYC-equipped models. As a result, owners carrying out an RS differential conversion need to ensure that the differential is properly mounted and supported.

The ERS Evo 5–9 RS Differential Mounting Kit V2 is designed specifically around this type of application, making it an excellent component for builds where an RS rear differential is being installed or retained.

It can be particularly useful for:

• RS differential conversions
• GSR to RS drivetrain conversions
• Performance AWD builds
• Track-focused Evolution models
• Rally-inspired builds
• Restorations
• High-power street cars
• Motorsport applications

Stronger Differential Mounting

The differential mounting points are responsible for keeping the rear differential securely located while the drivetrain transfers power through the AWD system.

Under hard use, drivetrain torque can place significant loads on the mounting points. Excessive movement can contribute to unwanted drivetrain motion, noise, vibration, and accelerated wear of surrounding components.

A properly designed reinforced mounting kit helps provide a more secure mounting arrangement and can give performance-focused owners greater confidence when putting additional power through the drivetrain.

V2 Design

The V2 designation represents the updated version of the ERS mounting solution.

For enthusiasts building an Evolution with upgraded power, stronger drivetrain components, or a dedicated RS rear differential, using an updated mounting solution can be an important part of creating a dependable rear drivetrain setup.

The kit is particularly suited to owners who are already rebuilding or upgrading the rear differential and want to address the mounting system at the same time.

Excellent for Performance Builds

The Evolution 5–9 platform has become extremely popular for high-performance modifications. Many vehicles now feature upgraded turbochargers, increased engine power, competition clutches, stronger transmissions, upgraded driveshafts, and performance differentials.

As drivetrain output increases, the components responsible for locating the differential become increasingly important.

This makes the ERS RS Differential Mounting Kit V2 a useful addition to a properly engineered performance build.

It can help provide a solid foundation for the rear differential while complementing other drivetrain upgrades.

Suitable for Road & Track Applications

Whether your Evolution is primarily driven on the road or regularly used on the track, maintaining a secure rear differential mounting arrangement is important.

For track vehicles, repeated hard launches, rapid acceleration, aggressive cornering, and high drivetrain loads can place additional stress on the rear differential mounting system.

For road cars, the kit can be an excellent preventative upgrade when carrying out an RS differential conversion or rebuilding an aging rear drivetrain.

Ideal During a Rear Drivetrain Rebuild

If you’re already removing the rear differential or subframe from your Evo, it’s an ideal opportunity to inspect the original mounting components and surrounding hardware.

Replacing or upgrading the mounting system during a drivetrain rebuild can save time and avoid having to dismantle the rear assembly again later.

This makes the ERS V2 kit particularly useful for comprehensive restoration and performance projects where the rear drivetrain is being refreshed from the ground up.

Important Fitment Information

Please confirm your Evolution’s generation, rear differential type, subframe configuration, and existing mounting arrangement before purchasing.

Evolution models can differ depending on specification and previous modifications. In particular, AYC and RS differential configurations should not be assumed to use identical mounting arrangements.

Professional installation is recommended, especially where the kit is being installed as part of a major drivetrain conversion or performance build. All mounting surfaces, hardware, bushings, and surrounding subframe components should be inspected during installation.
