They claim if you use one of those "HD" mounts, it moves the weak-point to the T-case itself. If you go mighty kong or something, it'll keep the mount, and the T-case alive, but... it's $$$

Hey Bud, these mounts are for the tranny.

IMO I would say the stock one is fine, since the t-case is divorced, and it sees the most stress. If your motor mounts are good, the tranny mount shouldn't see that much stress.
