Do poly tranny mounts make your car rattle or vibrate?

That is why Energy Suspension quit offering the trans mount w/ theyre kits. I have heard nothing but horror stories about using poly trans mounts. I wouldnt use it if I where you.

I have ES ploy trans mount modified. The nubs have been grinded down and the preload plate left out. It doesn't vibrate all the time, just at certain rpm's such as 3k to 4k. That's it.
I went with ploy because @ 36k, my stock one broke (don't remember how, i put the wheels to full left or right and tap the gas, it makes a clunk noise)
Then I went with a SLP 1LE trans mount, that broke in less than 100 miles. Then I went with GM 1LE trans mount, that broke under 150 miles.
I don't know why but it seems like everytime i go WOT, it breaks it.
Then I put in a prothane trans mount, that was too stiff and it vibrated too much for my liking.
Then I brought a used ES modified trans mount and have been happy with it, no breakage or vibration problems unless I get in the upper range which doesn't happen normally unless someone pisses me off on the road

i have an energy poly mount and it doesnt bother me a bit. its been in for a year and doesnt vibrate at all... or maybe i just dont remember what the stocker was like... the poly mounts do break in over time and the vibrating goes away.
