Is there any problem using the Extreme Motor Mounts -vs- Stock on a 5.0 with explorer front dress? I have read that there has been fitment problems with the 5.0 and the Extreme Mount.

If the motor is higher does this mean the air cleaner will rub, and need modification, or is there other fitment issues like the tunnel is too low?

Also, what transfer case mounts would one use with the Extreme... urethane or rubber?

The extreme mounts have been known to help with the Explorer accessory drive. Gives more clearance to the passenger side idler pulley to frame.

There is a bump on some blocks that interferes with the mounts. Most just grind a little clearance into the mount to allow it to fit. Not a big deal.

You can run either transfer case mounts.
