Well, I broke a mount again. I don't know how I'm doing this. It's the right one again. The one closest to the firewall. That one is such a pain to change too. My question is, does anyone have a guide to making urithane mounts? Or would that really help? Or should I just put a stock one back on and ease up on the driving?

lagos: did the new motor mounts fix that alignment problem you had?

Bigmeanbulldog55 :
you do know urithane mounts will make engine noise in the cabin of the car substantially louder? the stock mounts should last the life time of the car. Another symptom of a bad mount is when you shift quickly in first or second gear. It would make a loud thunk everytime you shift.
Does it make this poping sound when your already in gear and pushing the car hard? Does this poping sound happen when your in second gear?

It sounds like a bad diferental to me. It happened in my friends mini-van.  When he floored the car in first gear. The van will pull forward and make a poping sound. Everytime you hear a pop sound, the van will jerk. So does your car only make this pop sound under hard acceleration?

It's just the one mount that I'm switching to urithane. I might switch the left one some day if it breaks, but I don't think I'll have too much of a problem with noise. If I do, I'll just go get the regular mount. I still want to do this just because it's cheaper, and it'll be a nice learning experiance. And I got under the car and checked out all the mounts. It really is brokin. I don't know what the engine is smacking on, it kind of worries me, which is why I'm fixing this ASAP. I guess I could have other problems which cause the pop/thud noise, and inturn broke the mount. Like a bad differental. But if that's the chase, I'll replace that after I fix this mount. I've got a spare tranny setting at home. Thanks for all the help everybody.
