Looks like a transmission mount . That looks to be way out.

Has ur car had major work done to engine or trans before? Or been in a collision.

That looks like its out an inch. So I would think something caused that to rip, that does not look like wear and tear.

The car has been hit before in the front. It has 190k miles on it. Also one of the engine mounts were worn apart I replaced it already. I was looking at the automatic transmission mounts for a 04 and couldn't find anything that looked like mine. If I found it would I be able to replace it or your saying that the mount won't line about because of a bent frame or something?

I found what it is. It's a suspension mount. Here's the part. http://m.ebay.com/itm?itemId=380715359807 But I still don't know if it will bolt in or not. The gap is too much and I don't know if I could bring everything together with a new mount.

There's no vibration. Just a popping sound sometimes when i hit bumps real slow. The mount on the passenger side is still intact. I didn't realize it but there's suppose to be a bolt going through the center. I guess that fell out.
