Are they worth it? My tranny blew up about a week ago and I'm getting a new one soon so I figured while im there is it worth getting these poly motor mounts? I havent heard to much about them.

What does this have to do with Brakes, Tires, Wheels, or suspension?

I really don't like mine to be honest. The vibrations you get are annoying. The inside gets noisy with things rattling all the time. If I'd get off my lazy butt and get a torque damper to modify, I'd remove the urethane mounts and replace them with oem's and install the damper in a heartbeat.

Motor mounts can eliminate most if not all of wheel hop in FWD vehicles. The SRT4 is a prime example of how well they help.

^+1....I replaced both my mounts with polyurethane ones and I have reduced wheel hop dramatically. However the vibration is very annoying so I just put an even louder system in the car cool.gif
