Hasport will give you a little bit of vibration but nothing you could look past. If you still have your torque mounts and dont want so much vibration get the Inserts. A little stiffer and less vibration.

there are two upper mounts (driver and passenger sides)

there are two lower torque mounts (driver and passenger sides)

there is (sometimes) one tranny mount in the back towards the firewall

if your mounts are going bad, you can temporary prolong their life by using urethane inserts, but it'll give you lots of vibration.

you can get aftermarket mounts, but they'll be stiff too since they usually have urethane bushings.

other option is to go oem... or find some at a local salvage yard.

Those bottom torque mounts pretty much disentegrate after some time. Urethane inserts help, but if you choose to go that route, make sure the OEM rubber is still good. I just had to by a new driver side torque mount because it pretty much fell apart

If you want NO vibration, then you want OEM...period.

Going with an urethane insert will work - but there will be vibration. HASport mounts will work better - but they'll probably have more vibration than the inserts. Inserts are really cheap, so you might find yourself dealing with a little vibration for the money you'll save from not going one of the other routes. Between Prothane and Energy Suspension, they've got inserts for all of the locations in the engine bay.

inlinefour.com has hardened stock mounts made by spoonsports and they will not give you a vibration like all the other pos motor mounts out there

I heard Arizona Race and Machine makes nice cheap mounts. Never used myself but look identical to Hasport's.
