I’ve been hearing a clunking sound in my front end when I hit a medium sized bump or pothole in the road. I checked my suspension for anything that came loose after installing my lift a few weeks ago. I found that it was a bad motor mount on the passengers side.

What are the best recommended motor mounts to replace mine with? It doesn’t need to be heavy duty, just a good reliable mount.
 
Be careful buying anything other than rubber mounts or you'll gets vibes from them. Get Mopar if you have the money and replace both of them at the same time. I've used the cheaper Anchor brand and never had any issues with them.

Do you have or want a motor mount lift? If so I would go aftermarket like the Brown Dog. If not, stick with stock like the Mopar or similar (e.g., Crown).

Did these hold up well? Looking to replace the ones on a project jeep
 
Go with the MORE bomb proof motor mounts. The brown dog mounts don’t have enough rubber in them and vibrate at idle like crazy to where I could not use my rear mirrors well at idle. Once I switched to MORE, that issue went away. I was using rubber, not poly for both of the mounts.
 
I did not experience any change from Brown Dog to MORE. I finally went with Anchor. Slight improvement.

Can confirm MORE did not have bad vibrations for me either.
