Default Tranny Mount

time to replace mine.
ws6 store has 2 kinds available,
prothane and energy suspension. both around $23-$27
i have poly motor mounts so i figured these would help stiffen up the drivetrain a bit more
any body got anything good/bad to say about their tranny mounts?

Prothane. Never a problem out of mine, and my shifter doesn't act like it took a Viagra anymore when I'm driving hard.

If you go with the Energy Suspension theres a bit of cutting involved, and you don't use the pre-load plate for it. I just don't think the ES is a good design.

I hated the ES one bad vibrations even after broken in. My buddy has prothane and its not bad at all. I just got another oem one from rock auto and honestly I dont notice any difference in movement besides the fact it doesnt rattle change in the ashtray anymore
