if ur buying one brand new i recommend just buying a engine mount...there has been cases to where people have cracked there tranny casing unless u have tranny prothanes...IMO...i dont know much between the 2 but that everyone on here that has one usually has the ingalls

um depends. if u know what ur doing, about 1-2 hrs at the most for 2 engine mounts and tranny mounts. u need a jack, jackstands and probably a 3/8ths drive set if i had to guess. maybe a 1/2in. shouldn't take that long. the biggest bitch about it is lining the engine back up with the mount. ummm 2-3 guys shouldn't take too long. i would suggest a garage though, not a drive way. my buddy n me did his mounts on the good ole' srt. took us about 1 1/2 hrs.

where did u get the second engine mount? engine mount took longer to read the directions than to do lol..just jack the engine up a little bit but make sure u have a wood block on the jack...unbolt it..replace...bolt down...release the jack and check the tightness again then ur off...tranny mounts are not hard to install but taking out the stock bushings is a bitch

The ones w/the tranny mounts, how do they hold up over time? And are the worth the money? I already have a TD and have been considering them.

Dunno the difference between ingalls and weapon but I cant imagine that much of a difference with performance. But if your thinking about mounts, I would stick with the TD unless you really want to get into racing. Ive read vibrations from the mounts are pretty intense but worth it when it comes to track time. Ive had my TD on for about a week. Its set at 12mm and keeps the wheels planted on my stage 2 car pretty well. Just my 2cents.
