Anyone had an aftermarket transmission mount fail quickly? I replaced mine in the past couple months with a Febi/Bilstein mount and I think something is already amiss. I have noticed vibration and grumbling lately (maybe due to u-joints) so I got under the car and started shaking things. The transmission is ridiculously easy to move. A light jerk of the driveshaft sends it bobbling all over.

I installed new OE engine mounts within the past year, but I have noticed what seems like excessive drivetrain movement when torqued. Could the mount be that bad already?

Any recommendations besides OE?

Oh, and BTW, I also discovered that the poly toque rod bushings I got from FCP a few years ago are toast. Yet another reason I am growing to hate poly bushings.
