Why this kit
Washers are the one part of a GPZ 7000 coil mount that is supposed to wear out. They are the soft interface that takes the friction so the coil ears, the expensive part, do not. Most dealer pages list this kit in a single line and leave you guessing how it differs from the full hardware kit; the answer is simple. When bolts and seats are still good, this washer set is the whole fix, the cheapest way to take the slop back out of a hard-worked mount. When the complete joint is tired, step up to kit 3011-0284 instead. Either way the machine gets back the firm coil angle that deep, quiet swinging depends on.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from part 3011-0284?
This is the washers-only refresh. If your bolts and seats are still serviceable, this is the economical fix; if the whole mount is tired, take the full hardware kit 3011-0284.
What are the washers made of?
The keyed washers carry a molded TPV elastomer marking, visible in the product photo, the flexible material that cushions the coil ears; the kit also includes flat washers as pictured.
How do I know the washers are worn?
The coil starts nodding under swing pressure with the hardware snug, or you see the washer faces polished and thinned. They are meant to wear so the coil ears do not.
