my car sucks..anybody have a extra motor mount?

damn my car always has new problems every week..I broke 3 motor mounts in 2 weeks.. damnit, so annoying, and my ebrake still doesnt work...This month I already had to replace the rear subframe[diff mount area cracked] and halfshaft snapped in half..replaced my ebrake cables, new pads and ebrake stilldead, I think the pistons are bad,.. I still need to work on that..
My engine started leaking oil from the pan too... I think the engine is warping or flexing or something.. The oil pan is missing 2 bolts....

anybody have extra motor mounts that you do not want??? My car is gay.. everytime I replace one motor mount, the other side will rip in half or shred in a few runs. At irwindale last weekend I had to tie down my motor with tow chains to the crossmember, because when I drift the engine would lift and hover... This time Im replacing both motor mounts at the same time.. I have one poly mount I got from lucky 7, I just need one more mount that is stock or anything.
I need one motor mount... Im in rowland heights, I can drive to you..
Trying to fix my car for the 626 team tandem comp in october and 7stock.... just venting out my anger with my fc..fc=******* car , idk I just have bad luck?

626 377 6165

thanks

love dk

I have heard of people also filling in the stock mounts with a type of rubber cement or something similar and it works good apparently.
