So i need new motor mounts and dont know who to go with Brown dog offroad or the More bomb proof mounts what do you guys think some imput would be nice
So have you had any probs with stuff falling off if they vibrate so bad i dont want to be going down the road and loose and headlight or somthingdepends how much vibration you like. i think the brown dog ones are poly, so theyll rattle teeth, bolts and anything not rigidly mounted. the more ones are a different rubber which is supposed to be stronger than stock but not vibrate as bad as poly. i run poly and after a while you get used to it.
they offer poly and rubber, I have the rubber they settled in really fastdepends how much vibration you like. i think the brown dog ones are poly
So iv been reading some guys change there trans mount if they go with the poly motor mounts i just picked up a stock trans mount from checker auto parts am i going to have toget a differnt one if i buy the brown dog poly mounts

cool i thought i mite have to go get another trans mountWrong, In my XJ any ways.. I have been running the Brown Dog mounts for over a year and my teeth do not rattle. And yes they are the poly ones that I got, I do run a stock rubber trans mount though. Both Brown Dog and More both have poly and rubber options if I remember right, but I might be wrong. When you use any poly motor mount you are not suppose to crank down on the bolts like you do on a rubber mount. That is where most people get bad vibes on the poly's from. I myself was/am old school, so I cranked them down when I first got them and holly cow did it vibrate. I actually read the instructions(I felt before they are only on by a couple bolts why do I need instructions) and it clearly said to leave them just snug, not tight. And wow what a difference that made.... So fair warning to all that by the poly's-check the instructions for any specific stuff that may be out of the norm for you.
Right on another guy that runs poly motor and stock trans the more the better it makes me feel better I think Im going to call up brown dog tomarrow and order a set i live in AZ so i should have them befor the weekend Ill have a busy weekend have to install the ruufstuff stiffners fullsize axles and a 6.5 RK kit now try to get the motor mounts in toNope not at all. I run Brown Dog poly motor mounts and a stock rubber style trans mount and have never had an issue..
