Breaking left motor mount

I have an 89 F-250 4x4 SC w/ 5.8 with a 5 speed,previous owner did a few mods to the truck. (still figuring them all out)
I'm on the second motor mount in a year. any one have an idea on what to do so I'm not having to replacing it.
Chaining it down stronger mount anything better.

Hey, Chris.......Where did you get those 2 motor mounts? If it was Autozone, try NAPA or the Ford dealer. Never had anything good come from Autozone.

Replaced one mount last fall not long after getting the truck tried an autozone mount it would not even bolt up bought one from shucks thats the one that is going now.( one mount gone new one going) Trans mount is good. When leaving work it's a hard right in what's suppose to be 30mph traffic some times I don't have the patience to wait so I use the horse power and torque that's there and get out in traffic.

Ford dealer I know want's about $50 bucks have to talk with part's Manager he cut's me deal some times. I have seen some mount's that look like they will hold up but at $109.00 plus shipping I'm not sure about that, other then with hassle to change the mount it might be worth it.
