Default M.O.R.E. or Brown Dog motor mounts?

I just noticed today that the rubber in my drivers side motor mount is gone. Did a little searching on the web and came up with either M.O.R.E. bombproof mounts or Brown Dog mounts. Anyone know which ones are better or have any issues with either one? Any input would be appreciated. Thanx.

A few buddies of mine run the Brown Dog's on a local forum. They said they are really solid but the Jeep shakes a bit more when idling or in drive but stopped. Being as they are so solid there is not much play in them. I'll probably go with them because I am tired of cracking headers.

brown dog is a vendor here, and i have heard of failures of the MORE mounts, while Brown dog failures are just about unheard of.

Do you run the poly ones? I guess now I need to figure if I should get the rubber or the oily ones. I can deal with some vibration I just don't want my teeth rattling out. 36 inch swampers vibrate quite a bit also.

Brown Dog has GREAT customer service if you have any questions just call him and tell him what you have, he runs everything he makes so he knows it inside and out
