Anybody have MA new motor mounts yet?
I have installed them on my 03' when I did the new motor and they seem great.
Just curious to find out if anyone has experienced a lot more cab noise and engine noise due to the stiffness?
My new motor is stock and sounds nothing like the old one. It seems to growl when it starts and there are a few new rattles.
I have 225,000 miles on the chassy and I'm sure this has something to do with it.
Thanks!

I've got a set and they are still sitting in the shop floor waiting for the build to get done and put to work!!!!!!!

Installed mine with the motor in the truck, took about 1.5-2hrs per side. Waiting for the turbo to be sent back to drive.

Been running since this spring/summer. Love them. Only notice more noise around 2200 RPM and it's hardly noticeable.

Well, I have to admit, I am at fault for the grinding type noise I thought I heard at startup.
Turn out, the so called "best batteries in the world" Optimas, were junk.
They load tested at 40% after only 3 years. Yes, I have charged them from time to time.
I put in new batteries, the starter sounds totally different and the growl went away.
I still have a little vibration, but nothing like before.
My fault.
Thanks!
