Default motor mount inserts???

where to get them cheapest? Which brand? How many inserts come with the kit ie just front and rear or inserts for all four mounts? I see summit sells Energy bushings set for $19 but only shows front and rear mounts is that they come with?

The ES Kit only comes with the Front and Rear Mounts. Check your Stock Mounts to see if they are cracked before you put these in.

My Front and Rear Mounts were in good shape, I have the ES Inserts and All I have to say is if you didnt have Rattles before, you will now.....Vibrates the hell out of everything, but the Motor stays where it is supposed to.

Yeah that seem like a good idea but my question is this... HOW long will that modifyed mount last? I would hate to due this every freaken 20k or so. If that was the case I would RATHER fork over $15 now for some real poly bushings than saving $10 (24hours down time for it to dry) and end up having to change it out every 20,000 or so miles....

not puting this great DIY mod down just wanna now how effective it is in a long term aspect.

I think Prothane has inserts for all the mounts.

I use the ES inserts in the front and rear mount and I filled in the other 2 mounts with polyurethane sealant and it works great. I have had this combo for over a year now.
