Default enginge mounts problems.

about a month ago two of my engine mounts broke. if your looking at the egine, it's the two the left and if your driving, it's the two to the right. i had it replaced and now my car is shaking very badly when my car comes to stops. something about how the mounts are too stiff.is there any thing i could do about it? anyhting i could do to fix it?

i heard that that was even worse. after market mounts. something about how it's stiffer allowing more power. is there a chance that a screw is loose or something? how do i check?

post a pic..... i or many other could solve it fast....... it they just put new stock ones one and it still shakes bad.... the did not align the mount correctly.... ill look in the am but i think it should be 4.1' bolt to bolt..... take a pic of the top mount and post it! [/align]

yes the mounts the replaced it with should be stock ones. by looking at the mount, the only thing i could think of is that the big screw holding it up is slightly slanted. i cant upload any pictures right now but i'll have them up later.

check out the bolt thati have an arrow pointed at. it is shifted alittle. you could see where it used to be if you look closely. i'm thinking that that might be the problem.
