Fitted my AWR engine mounts today, found the drivers and front mount broke, the rear mount beginning to split
and the transmission mount was found to be the best not showing any signs of ware or tear.
Only issue with fitting the mounts was lining up the hole for the long bolt on the rear mount, took a while but eventually got it.

Drivers Side.




Front.




Transmission Mount.


Rear Mount.

So as many of you know a few of us went to QLD to meet some fellow members up there, we havent been across the border long,
when we come to a part of the highway where some of it had been dug out leaving a raised section for people too hit,
unfortunately I hit that raised section resulting in the following, I thought it had put my wheel alignment out but i was wrong.
It had damaged my right hand side tyres, we are so lucky they didn't blow while we were razzing through some national parks.


FRONT RIGHT
