Reinforced graphite upper mount for the Mi10

This Factory Pro produced part is an aftermarket rear upper body mount made for the Schumacher Mi10 chassis, supplied as Factory Pro O-SCP049. The graphite 3.0 construction focuses on delivering a tougher mounting point that resists wear and keeps body fitment consistent across repeated running.

As the upper rear body attachment, the mount secures the shell to the Mi10 rear posts. Its graphite composition aims to provide higher rigidity than typical plastic mounts while retaining a low weight to avoid upsetting the car's balance on mixed-surface club tracks.

Installation notes

  • Remove the body shell to access the Mi10 rear mounting area and prepare a clean work surface.
  • Place the graphite mount onto the rear body posts, ensuring all holes line up with the chassis fastener points.
  • Tighten using the original chassis fasteners, but check that the body remains level and that no clearance issues occur with the wing or suspension.
  • Confirm the mount is free from rubbing against moving parts through full articulation of the suspension.

Tuning role

  • Because graphite increases upper-mount stiffness, expect incremental changes in how the rear transmits loads to the suspension and slight differences in rear grip.
  • Use this mount when testing body flex or when aiming to reduce movement of the shell between runs for consistent lap times.
  • Combine body-mount changes with spring and damper tweaks to maintain equilibrium for your track conditions.
Graphite 3.0 offers higher stiffness and better resistance to deformation, so it generally lasts longer under racing conditions than standard plastic mounts.
Graphite is more rigid and can be more brittle than flexible plastics; it improves repeatability but severe impacts may still cause damage.
Inspect mounting holes and edges for stress cracks after heavy use; replace if any signs of hairline damage appear.
