Default Poly Motor Mounts

It appears that there are no aftermarket poly motor mounts for our trucks. Is this correct? If so, what's a good stock replacement?

Factory OEM.

I got plates welded on my stock ones connecting the two parts so they're solid.

The stock mounts handle power pretty well. I don't see why you would need any poly mounts and cannot see why anyone would weld up their mounts unless they were making a honest 600+ hp

I have a poly trans mount and heard that they can break easily if the engine mounts aren't poly or solid due to the engine movement. My engine movement is minimal but I was just curious if there was anything between stock and solid mounts.

Hey Ferocity, late reply. I just welded up the mounts because I could since I was in there. Now I want to go back to stock. The biggest difference I feel is when I'm going over a bumpy road the truck chatters for lack of a better description. It feels like the motor mounts should be absorbing a lot of drivetrain vibration. I'll be looking for a set of stockers and mine will be up for sale to someone who needs solids. I'd be willing to trade straight up if anyone wants to try them.
