Our spacers mount on the bottom and puch the bump stop on the bottom of the subframe bushing....They push the subframe all the way up so the top bump stop pushes up against the body holding the subframe solid but in rubber. We are not holding the subframe by the liquid bushing at all We are holding the subframe tight by the top and bottom bump stops. The 2 piece spacers actually fit inside the bushing putting pressure on the fluid area of the bushing.The whole idea is to hold the subframe tight so it can not travel causing the subframe to bounce or the body to lean. Having rubber still there but holding it tight can absorb some energy and make it less likely for the wheels to bounce. If you know how it works you would not call it a bandaid because it is accomplishing the same thing of holding the subframe tight, But retaining a resonable noise and vibration level for a street car. For a track car that is rarely driven on the street I would suggest the full aluminum 300 degree bushings.
