Motor mounts

Am I the only one who has troubles keeping this straight 6 beast down? Both of my trucks have broken motor mounts. Both had the straight 6

Torque baby, torque. Lol. I think there are some different strength mounts, but you might check your trans mount too. If it's bad, it can speed up the breaking of your motor mounts.

Autofab in California builds some bombproof motor mounts, but they are pricey.
I ran a chain from the drivers side bracket on the motor, to the frame, and had no more problems.
