Hi Scotty,

I need to replace the Torque Strut Mount or "dog bone" on my 2004 Lexus Es330 (with 192403 miles). Do you have and suggestions on which brands/price ones to buy, which ones to avoid ?

I've seen them go from $8.22 to over $100.

Thanks.

I see. Autozone has some with the "limited lifetime warranty"

Pioneer Front Motor mount 634236 for $38.49

Rodatech Passenger Side Motor Mount 3417 $48.49

MRC Mounts Front Passenger Side Motor Mount A4236 $62.49

Duralast Front Motor Mount 9197 $99.99

OEM's range $86 to well over $100.

What @Doc said, L.L.W.

With parts like that which aren't safety related go for the cheapest with a lifetime warranty so if it fails again aside from time spent it's free.

I like energy suspension mounts that have a fail safe "solid lock" if the off chance that the polyurethane goes however I don't exactly like the price.
