In both cases the rear mount looks good, but niether is new.
As a side note, everone who has responded to me about this problem, with
personal experiance, has referred to a NON Over Drive car. Both cars I
am haveing the problem with are NON Over Drive vehicles. Could this be
an afliction seen only in Over Drive challanged vehicles? Anyone ever
seen this problem in an Over Drive equiped car?
