    I am going to do my underneath motor mounts. Well I also bought new dog bone mounts. Is there an advantage/disadvantage to flipping new dog bone mounts? Is flipping them just allowing u to get double use out of a mount?

    Yes flipped mounts > non flipped even if they are new. The flipping of the mounts just makes the stress points a lot more stiff do to the fact that the rubber is in a position that it can actually do something. Once you look at the mount you will see what I mean.

    If you look, the rubber is more solid top to bottom. When you flip them it's front to back which is what matters.
