For 1 the hockey pucks will fall apart. Also they don't have the correct height, and the correct bolt offset. You have minimal surface contact via the bolt/washers. How can you calculate the apex of the engine/tranny to the diff with a set of pucks, and know your not wearing out the joints on a 1pc drive-shaft. with the pucks, the engines weight is the only thing keeping the engine steady. ?

JGS polymounts are really the only option out there, $120 and hardly vibrate
1. do you have proof they will fall apart? vulcanized rubbers construction is farily heat resistant.
2. "the engines weight is the only thing keeping the engine steady." how are they any worse than sloppy stock bushings?
3."The setup leaves soo much room for play" where? I see a reduced amount of play.
4.How can you calculate the apex of the engine/tranny to the diff with a set of pucks, and know your not wearing out the joints on a 1pc driveshaft" because the joints on a driveshaft are made to bend. think of the driveshaft on a car/truck with a live axle, they have a similar construction and move up and down constantly as the suspension compresses/depresses.

don't get me wrong, i don't have these mounts, i have peak performance cnc mounts, so im not trying to stick up for them, im simply weighing out the facts.
