Default SS/AS and Hardbar Shock Mounts

Anyone know if the Hardbar delrin shock mounts are legal in SCCA stock autocross classes? It seems to me from reading the rules that they would be but I just want to make sure I haven't missed anything.

Thanks guys. I wasn't sure if it would count as changing the suspension points or require modifications that weren't allowed. Thanks again.

The other part of the rules to remember is that the mounting must be the same "type" of mount. I agree that the Hardbar mount would be legal. It is still a pin top type. I have seen a few cars using a clevis mount on the top which I interpret as illegal.

That's how I read them too, I just wanted to be sure since the delrin mounts aren't that cheap. The NASA guys say they are great so I am hoping they help with autocross as well.
