Mis-matching motor mounts causes horrible vibration???
Front mount: torque solution SOLID.
Cam/Trans mount: torque solution POLYURETHANE.
I first installed the front SOLID torque solution motor mount. This reduced engine roll a lot with a decent amt of vibration. Way better now that it is settled in. 500miles broken in.
THEN...
I installed torque solution POLYURETHANE cam & trans side motor mount INSERTS. Only on the car for 20miles.
I heard that installing side mounts are suppose to reduce the vibration of the car (only if they are all solids? or only if they are all polyurethane?)
I am getting HORRIBLE vibrations now to a point where i can't even stand it.
Did i mismatch the mounts incorrectly? (solid & polyurethane).
help please.
the mount polyurethane inserts for cam/ trans have only been in for 20 miles. how many miles should i wait to see if they settle down at all?
should i just replace the cam ones to stock and see how that helps? and leave the trans one alone with the polyurethane?

I got front billet, sides poly inserts. I dont mind the steering wheek vibrate. Its the CABIN DRONE that annoys the heck out of me. I already order the CAM SIDE oem mount to be put in. My righy headlight vibrates like crazy so i suspect its the cam side that vibrates the most. Im leaving the trans side inserts in because i really like the improved shifting.
