Engine mounts

Hey all.
I have just replaced my engine/trans mounts 2 weeks ago and after about 1 week i realised my engine is sitting on a slope again, my old LHS mount was destroyed F-all rubber left on it and the RHS was squashed kinda bad (still had rubber tho)
Now it looks like my new mounts rubbers have broken away from the metal housing, The LH side has droped and the RH side has lifted causing the engine to sit on a slope.

Can anyone tell my why this has happend to a NEW set of engine mounts and if I replace them again is it going to repeat itself and brake another set?

Any help would be great!

thanks. Steve
