two mounts are suspect, upper mount to the firewall and the lower front by the crank pulley.

The lower mount is fairly easy. Jack stands are needed as the engine gets lifted 1/2 inch to take load off of mount while the right front wheel is off. Use OEM only for replacement.

Upper mount needs to be visually inspected for cracks. Normal life is 90-100K miles. It is a pressed fitting, so many of use go the poly route to keep it easy to replace. Some swear that there is more engine vibration in the steering wheel from the poly, I never noticed a difference.
