So im trying to figure out why my new tranny mount broke so quickly?! I already bought a poly urethane one so thats much better but what causes them to break?

Hey:

Just to be clear, did you break a poly mount or another stock mount and buy a new poly mount? Poly mounts are pretty hard to destroy. I would check motor mounts and replace with poly ones if you haven't done so yet.

It seemed like I broke thes things monthly, ***** to the wall driving will cause this, lol! I swapped motor mounts and the tranny mount with some polyprothane mounts from summit for around $75 or so! Have yet to drive the car with the new mounts in. Should be another week!

Last year i broke 3-4 in a month, put in the poly and haven't had an issue. And i was all stock at the time. I wish they would have lasted as the ride is much smoother
