Default How to tell that Motor mount is bad?

How can I determine if my drivers top motor mount is bad?
I was replacing the torque mounts and pulled out the top drivers mount to check it out. The rubber has no tears but when it's installed it appears that the mount is off center in the frame. The bolts line up fine but the whole unit is tilted a small degree.
Is my mount still good? Do I wait until the rubber tears like other mounts?

Do you have any pictures?

How does it feel when you're shifting under load? Do you feel the shifter moving a bit, or any odd movements?

Sadly no pics. Shift feel was bad but all other mounts are pretty bad. Replacing the torque and rear now

If all the other mounts were bad, I'd suspect the drivers is worn and should be replaced. Why change only 3 mounts?
