    Sold engine mounts

    Hey patrolers, I'm about to do my engine mounts on my zd30di, and was just wondering if anyone has fitted solid mounts? I know solid can cause more vibration in car, I found these which have a damping, but would like to know if anyone has, & do you think they'll cause more engine vibration though the car? Or am I about to be a ginni pig! ! Cheers guys

    I think Winnie has bought more solid mounts for his gq. Not quite like that but superior engineering do a more steel less rubber setup.
    I wonder if he's installed them yet??

    Zd30 mounts rarely break. Plus the oem mounts will obviously be smooth on the vibration. And those mounts are around the same as oem.
    I wouldn't bother if it were me...

    Morning all thanks for the replys, mounts aren't broken, but have a lot of movement stopping/taking off, just looking at long term, if benefits out way negatives. Cheers

    I thought it was the gearbox mounts, so I changed them, no go! So I'll say what's going on, should of done this at the start, sorry guys, she's an auto, 4 speed, so when stopping with hand on shifter, it will move backwards then take foot off the brake and accelerate it will then move forward, can also feel it though the car, it's quite a jolt, just trying to diagnose what it could be! Obviously I have stuffed mounts somewhere! !

    Yes I have and they are a lot noisier than standard at idle.

    Yep, noise goes away once it's revving.
