i like they poly mounts. havent heard bad things about poly tranny mount. only that if you have rubber engine mounts and a poly tranny mount could crack the tailshaft on the transmission.

i have them both and really like them!

I went with the poly's, some people like the solids but there's no way I could ever run those as a daily driver, lol. I've been very pleased with my poly's though.

You want the Prothane brand Poly motor mounts. I bought mine from ws6store but it looks like they sell em for $60. I suggest replacing the motor mounts, but leaving the trans mount stock.

i changed the stock tranny mount because it was broken and put an autozone 15 dll one, so the prothane ones from this link are the ones I need right?
