driving with the motor mounts totally broken will damage the frame mounting brackets and the holes for the engine mounts wil get elongated..


if you replace motor mounts you may have to use a larger diameter bolt or get the frame brackets fixed by welding a plate or replacing...


i'm sure your transmission mount is gone also....
