urethane mounts?

Does anybody out there have or had urethane engine/trans mounts. I'm fixing to tear into my drivetrain on my 79 bronco, and i was wanting to use urethane mounts. Does anybody have any feedback with the urethane?

Well they certainly outlast the OEM rubber ones. They tend to be less susceptable to "mushrooming" or tearing. I have heard some complaints about more vibration transfer through them than with rubber ones. I have no experience with urethane engine mounts personally but I do know that I really like the urethane for shock and suspension bushings.

Well, I put poly body mounts in with my 3" bodylift and can't tell any difference from the old rubbers.
So that a good thing.
