I noticed a broken motor mount on the passenger side of my W200. I have a 318 Poly under there. I've been told that Mopar motor mounts really suck and I should consider either polyurethane or interlocking mounts. I think I prefer the interlockers as the polyurethane might make it vibrate too m

Is this a problem with inherently weak mounts, or just age? I'd never heard much about this.

Hi Dave!
The mounts which broke on FrankyB's W200 were brand new. However read about Hollister and the Mud Pit...ha! ha!
The mount could have been defective or it could have been the mighty torque caused by the DTA Headers....= )
I'd suspect that it was the "uplift" side, since the engine torque will compress one side while causing the opposite side to lift.
