Default motor mount issue...avid



do you guys think i will be safe mixing motor mounts...here the deal

rear avid mount
stock transmission mount and stock timing belt side mount both with prothane inserts...(will i be ok with this setup)

only reason i am keeping the avids in because i don't have to run the lower mounts...its too much of hassle to put those mounts back in

right now i have alot of vibration because the tranny side avid mount is sinking insides and the mount actually has contact with the chassis?

Lol... I had the same problem with the tranny side mount. It pinches there. I ran it like that for a couple months and never had a problem honestly. It does cause the car to vibrate a lot more. Once I swapped my motor again I put a stock mount in though.
