Default Poly Tranny mount?
Will a poly trans mount make the Jeep vibrate more due to being more solid? 97 XJ 4.0

Thanks

I just ordered a poly mount to replace my stock one due to a grinding/ rattling sound coming from down there on acceleration. Are the vibes from a poly mount that severe? What are the benefits (if any) of polyurethane?

Sorry, dont mean to thread jack

The vibrations aren't that bad really. But after I put it in I understood why everyone said they cause more vibrations than the OE rubber mount.

Polyurethane can dry rot faster than the OE rubber if you dont put a nice layer of white lithium grease on it.
