Unless they are broken I wouldn't worry about replacing them. If you put a solid/poly motor and transmission mount felt vibration to a more then noticeable amount
Yea I know some ppl say replace them with factory autozone ones when u say broke do you mean torn or soft like the engine.can move
lmao damnnnnnnn my tranny def doesn't look like that I pulled and pushed on the engine it didn't sway at all im guessing there fine?
Here's a general rule to go by, if youve owned the car and don't know if the motor mounts we're ever changed out, its safe to say you should replace them an be done with it.
Motor mounts in general are a quick job unless you got lucky like I did with my GTP and the stud spins inside the motor mount. Then it turns fun..
thats a motor mount, oil leaks will will kill it, the oil makes the rubber soft, then it breaks down, and looks like that. i pulled 3 hand fulls of rubber out of the frame.
my engine was moving 3 inches on the pass side when i shifted from drive to reverse.( both ways) dog bones were twisting as well. never had a vibration believe it or not lol
Yea my cars used I'm just swapping out everything slowly I want to upgrade my brakes next but not sure which to buy and also my struts
It's worth to note that if you go solid (rubber that is, poly lower mounts only for racekar), you may want to drill into them to be sure they're really solid. I've yet to receive a "solid" mount without fluid in it, including ones that didn't make any noise when shaken.
Press in brake and put car in drive and revers and press throttle to feel the play in engine
