TT motor mount Qs

[kervinridgley@earthlink.net (Kervin)]

I think all the mounts need to be in good shape for any one to last. 
When I got my car, i did the front mount, only to have to do it again in
a few months.  I did my passenger one before the engine swap and it made
a big difference.  I did the drivers side (which was shot ) and the rear
when I had the engine out.  My thoughts are that they work as a system
to hold the engine in place, any one that is bad or not aligned, puts
more stress on the others.

There is a little more vibration now, and it is probably only gonna get worse. These mounts were replaced right before I had the exhaust installed, like 2years ago, thats approx 30-35,000 miles ago. I don't wanna have any undue pressure on the TT downpipe.
