Yep, dealer.

Have you gotten used to the vibrations yet or installed the rear mount?
Haven't installed the rear mount yet, still debating if I want to keep them this hard or go with some softer urethane. I don't know how many times I want to pull and install motor mounts to find the right balance.

As far as that goes, anyone want some REALLY solid motor mounts?

Absolutely. I could either purchase your excellent job or use your even better DIY to do this myself. I was waiting to purchase solid urethane mounts because people were reporting the window weld failure after awhile, now I don't have to. Let me know if you def want to sell those mounts.

Ya those are the two there both attached to the tranny, the front one is located on the crossmember and the other one is on top of the axle.

Would it be a bad idea to fill the transmission mount as well? I have solid motor mounts but I noticed my transmission mount is broken, so I am just curious as to whether I should just buy an oem mount or if it would be beneficial to fill the tranny mount.

I'd think it would help, I've thought of this as well but I haven't done it.

I may try it then. It definitely won't damage anything will it?
