      I think the H2 were all the same with no changes or small changes
      They didn't make many of them
      Then hummer stopped selling them,
      A 10mpg truck during high gas prices didn't go over well.
      With both versions
      The mitilary version is better in my book kinda fun to drive. Used to drive one in a garage that was 7x7
      You had 1" each side and the top.
      It was a tight squeeze. It belonged to a recruiting location we were going to put a sound system in it but never did.
      The hummers and h2's were nice
      The humvee was striped down to nothing it was a bitch to put the windows up and down. Lots of blind spots no concept of clearance
      Just run over it.

    Back in the early 70’s I had a 68 Camaro SS. I was impatiently looking for a parking spot at a large shopping mall when finally I saw a car pull out of a space at the end of an aisle. Well, I goosed the gas to get to that spot before someone else grabbed it. At that moment, the driver side engine mount snapped causing the motor to torque over and jam the throttle cable. So here I am with rpm’s and vehicle velocity increasing heading to an ever diminishing end to the aisle. After trying hard braking to no avail, I was about to throw it into neutral when acceleration halted, allowing the motor to level out and release the cable. Well, I stopped in time and pulled into the parking spot, shut off the car, collected my wits, and went into the store thinking, “boy, that was close”.

      They had to get a special bell housing to translate between Ford and MOPAR.
      They spent nearly a month of summer days on it.
      The first time they got it running and tuned, the friend decided to see what is sounded like at high RPMs.
      The engine twisted the frame so much one front wheel was a few inches off the driveway.
      They sold it all to some guy who wanted the engine.

    I used to hang out at a garage near my home in NJ as teenager and motor mounts on mid to late 1960's Chevy small block V-8's were terrible at failing and separating. The factory ones were a sandwich of 2 metal plates to attache to the engine and frame with a rubber glued or pressed in. Some would attach a piece of cable between the engine and the frame. At least those were a lot easier to remove and replace.

    Rolls Royce and a host of others use oil filled mounts for better sound isolating properties.
    Solid mounts eventually tear, so does liquid filled , the difference is the liquid leakage gives a rapid decompression failure, the solid tears more over weeks or months till noticeable failure.
    Absolutely no idea about whether the initial failure is sooner or later between the types, but the “time till all gone” definitely differs.

    My '67 Chevelle SS had a motor mount let go back in the day. That car had a rod for throttle. When the engine lifted on the driver side, the throttle was pulled wide open. Motor mounts were awful design, no sort of restraint when the mount separated. GM later came up with re-designed mounts that had a 'hook' that kept the motor from lifting far enough to cause the wide open throttle. They also had a cable retrofit that went around the mount and subframe. It was a wild ride when that mount let go! Only thing to do was have the presence of mind to turn the key off. Hadda be quick about it1

    I've changed hydraulic motor mounts on German cars in the past. They are like shock absorbers, allowing movement of the engine with dampening. MB diesels had plenty of movement on their mounts and had tiny shock absorbers between the engine and frame. It allowed the car to feel smooth, while the engine danced around under the hood.

      Cheaper than balancing the engine. Lexus motors, smooth as butter

    On the lift you are replacing, will you move the larger lift to the center position?

    Cool video, just one question. Not knowing anything about liquid filled motor mounts. Sense one foiled. Would this be one of those times that replacing both mounts would be a good idea? Or because of ridiculous price. Wait til other one failes?

      The pass side doesn’t receive a tension load from the engine torque so it’s much less likely to fail.

    Back in the early 1960s, GM cars had a motor mount consisting of two steel plates with a block of rubber fused between them. Only the hood kept the engine in the car when it broke.
