if the condition is ok it shouldnt matter and can probably go for a few more years, i can imagine the right hand mount is more spongy compared with the new one and since i didnt notice any difference i could of done just one yes.

My left one would thud super bad while wheelin cause there isn't much left of it. I'll post a picture later cause it's pretty funny. The right one was just fine so I'm just keeping the extra mount around for when it does go bad. The tranny drop did make things extremely difficult. I had to unbolt it from the cross member and put a tranny jack under it. I'm just glad I've got a lift to do it on 😂

glad you got it done, its not very hard of a job.. if its at a slanted angle that might be a reason for it to go out faster too.

I used a piece of 4x4 under the oil pan to lift everything up. Worked great

At least it's designed so even broken the engine won't jump through the hood.
I got mine to replace soon. I'll be ordering a set of brown dogs.
