Well, I know what happens when one becomes worn, and when it breaks. What I don't know is what exactly would happen if it went unchecked for a long time. If left broken/worn, the others would probably follow suit very quickly. Remember, the engine/trans combo needs at least three good mounts to function proberly. It's like when plotting a line, at least three points are necessary. This has not happened to me on the Contour (still in pretty good shape), but it did happen on my old Lumina APV. All I heard was loud thumps when I hit bumps, but nothing else. One day when I was changing the oil, I noticed one of them didn't even exist!!! So, remember, your mounts are worn, not broken...yet. Check the BAT catalogue (
clicky ). They have a whole bunch of fun stuff for the Contiques, along with pretty good pictures of the mounts. I, however, can't get pictures yet. Mine is getting new Pre-Cats right now and is still in the shop (Make sure you do this before 8yrs/80k mi). Once I get it back, I'll post some pics of mine. Or if anybody has pics of theirs, please do.
