I found myself swapping motor mounts between Jeeps last night to address a number of issues, and realized it might be helpful for folks to see the two of them side by side. Both are quality products, but the Brown Dog mount has a lot more lift to it. With the Jeep that has a factory skid plate and transmission mount, this worked out to be too tall. The fan was firmly against the radiator shroud. With the other Jeep that has a bit of a tummy tuck, the Brown Dog mount fit, but is probably still too close to the shroud. I tried shifting the radiator and fan, but couldn't come up with any additional clearance. I'll probably try to shim up the transmission mount to get some space back.
If I remember correctly, Andy at Ironman says their motor mounts will move the motor up 1" at the fan, barring any other changes to the driveline.
