So I'm installing a new beatrush transmission mount because I've had the engine mounts in for a while and just got around to putting these in. Anyway I took it out and noticed this, is this normal or at least could driving around for a few thousand miles like that have done any damage?

I don't know what was off the first time but I loosened up all the bolts and wiggled it around again then tried and it fit perfectly, of course then the bolt broke off.

I must have extremely good luck then. PB blaster and some patience goes a long way.
