Tranny mounts

How long are the tranny mounts supposed to last? The GM items seem to be pretty weak and I was wondering if anyone else makes them? In fact pretty weak is being polite, they are **** and keep breaking!!!

Use an energy suspention mount. It has interlocks to keep it from seperating and it's made from urethane.

I agree with JoelOl75, the energy suspension tranny mount are great. I used to have problems with my tranny mounts breaking all the time, until I bought an Energy Suspension tranny mount.
