    Have tried to find posts in this forum about bad motor mounts and all I can find is that mounts on this tiny engine don't really go bad. My engine seems to rock when I go into reverse. Looks like the under torque mount is bad, but did not have any cracks when I inspected it. Does this seem like a bad mount?

    In the video it's easy to see that movement happens mostly on (sub)frame side bushing. But bottom of the pushing looks fine. Just look at the top side of the bushing while it moves like that. Unfortunately you just can't see it on your video. If it has crack in ti it will be very easy to spot.
