Default I'd go w/ the snub mount from APR. My upgrade was well worth it.

The stock one is very soft & flimsy rubber when compared to the one from APR. Yours is probably torn or damaged or just worn out.

Default If it is... lift the hood, have a friend hit the gas a few times and watch the engine tilt. Our V8

5.2L Jeep Grand Cherokee would go through motor mounts, namely, because I was told they're were the same on the V6. Of course, I wasn't exactly nice to it. Once the tranfer case started making a lot of noise ~95k miles from a stretched chain and rebuilds were $1k+, we sold it.
