Transmission and Engine mounts
I need some new motor mounts and transmission mount. I'm getting minor vibes at idle. What are you guys using? How do you like them? Any install issues?
Should I just get some standard Crown mounts all around?
Obviously, price is always a factor and please list your part numbers if you have them and thanks!
Helpful info:
'98 sport
4.0/AW4 trans
2'' shackles and pucks
3/4'' TC Drop

Heavy duty aftermarket motor mounts use poly bushings which are stronger and durable but make the ride harsher and can vibrate more. Probably not the best choice for a daily driver.
If it is your daily driver and want to not have such noise and vibes, consider using OEM rubber mounts...which cost about 1/10th the price of HD stuff.

Im running with Brown dog ultra-flex rubber mounts in my DD and they are great.
I don't really feel any vibes now that they are broke in.
I put in a new OEM rubber trans mount when I did my motor mounts.
If you can swing for these, they are worth it.

You could just tell you had upgraded motor mounts when new.
But now I don't really feel anything if at all.
Alot of guys get vibes with the brown dog rubber motor mounts when they
Over tighten the through-bolts or don't loosen up the trans mount when installing the mounts.
