I've got a stock rubber one in mine and can't complain.

My truck had a cage, front and mid plates with lateral limiters and I used a factory rubber trans mount with the cross member to mount bolts left loose(using lock nuts) to keep tranny/transfer where it belongs and to help support the heavy 205 transfer. I never had any issues with this setup.

same here. Keep the trans rubber mounted if you have motor/mid plates. it will help prevent the thin trans case from cracking if you have chassis flex.
