  • Mounts and mounts

    Looking to change out my motor mounts, trans mount, and torque arm mount. Looking for suggestions as to OEM, urethane, prothane, etc What are your personal experiences with the different materials?
    When in doubt, Whip it out !

          My bad. I should have specified.. I just did engine mounts. I didnt want to have a rough/fully stiff ride with a poly trans mount.

            What are you doing with the car?

            I prefer OEM rubber for my vehicles less NVH. Solid mounts are used on tractors and race cars.

                Car isn't a DD. Just for fun in the summer. 3.73's 2800 convertor, long tubes going on and possibly a cam. I seem to remember a while back some people complaining about too much vibration from poly mounts. Definitely don't mind SOME extra vibration, just don't want a ton.

                  Then go for poly engine mounts, I would look into a 1LE rubber trans mount

                    I have poly trans and motor mounts. Don't notice much of a difference over stock but thats just my opinion. I also have a poly torque arm mount that I have yet to install. It has been sitting since this time last year (the mount)
