Hi, i have replace all 3 motor mount with XLR8 and i have 2k on it , it vibrates alot. I heard i can fix this removing the rear mount and use the OEM, Ok my question is, the only OEM mount that was good was the front can i use the front on the rear? The seem the same.

what type of mounts did you get?
Street (62A), Strip (75A) or Race (85A)
i'm close to pulling the trigger on the xlr8 mounts but i've heard there's a lot of vibration but i'm not 100% sure if it's the street mounts people are using

Sorry OP I can't answer your question on the front and rear switch

But for post above, Here's what I write on other similar threads (lots of threads on mounts):

I changed out my mounts for performance reasons and love the upgraded mounts. BUT when I replaced all 3 to the lowest durometer the vibrations are very noticeable. They are really bad with the AC on and I had to put foam strips between the dash and the windshield to stop rattles. The vibrations were kind of embarrassing with company in the car so I decided to change the rear mount back to oem.

Now the vibrations are much lower and are at a comfortable level. I love the mounts but changing the rear one back to oem was crucial to me. Some say the vibrations aren't bad but this is my personal experience. I've heard a few people on this forum that also changed back to oem for the rear one.

Some say the mounts will soften up as they are broken in, but the mounts I have were bought used so they were broken in already and the person I bought it from was selling them because the vibrations were too much

Im sure going to replace the rear, if the vibration continues im going to get oem

Many people do leave the rear mount OEM to reduce vibration, although we have seen in the past many people have their mounts soften after a few thousand miles and become less firm. I recommend driving it for a while longer and seeing how it is then.

We also sell our mounts individually for anyone that would just like to purchase the other two.

Do the transmission mounts need to be changed? I just bought some innovative motor mounts with 75a bushings. Everyone talks about replacing the motor mounts but never the transmission mounts.
