Does anyone think there's a significant difference between these motor mounts and all the other poly mounts out there? These are the cheapest i've seen, unless someone knowsa cheaper place? All the mounts look the same to me, but the prices are all different.

Just remember, you get what you pay for. I wouldn't go cheap on motor mounts.

Moosestang, those are the exact ones I got. They are made by Prothane, which are the same one, say BMR advertises one their site. A few other companies sell. They are the black polyeurothane ones. If you look at summit with the red ones they are about $30 more. I did some googling on the differences between the red and black, and what I read was they have the same specs, so I went with the black as they are cheaper, and if red was for looks, who cares. Noone can see them anyways.

black tends to stay lubed better than the red. red seems to dry out sooner. its weird, but true with a lot of poly bushings.
