    See post #15...

    Oh... did you mean why did they fail in the first place?

    IMO, rubber gets old, & being in fairly close proximity to the exhaust speeds the aging process. Mine wasn't shredded, just very spongy.

    Are you still talkin 'bout the tranny mount or are you back on the potbelly comment from earlier in the thread?

    After a couple days worth of heavy footed testing...

    The 1/2" grade 8's are holding fast...

    Still a slight clunk after stopping hard, then letting off the brake, but MUCH improved...

    Weird noise that had been around so long that I'd gotten used to it...GONE!

    So far, so good. I'll let you know if I snap these.
