Wevo Motor Mount Question - Squeaking?

I had some wevo semi sold engine (yellow) mounts and 977T tranny installed about 1,000 miles ago.

Recently I've been noticing what can only be described as squeaking at very low speeds on rough pavement coming from the rear of the car.. we're talking under 5mph on un-even pavement.

Could these be the motor mounts? or tranny mount? maybe they need to be re-torqued?

I've only done street driving with one track day at the streets of willow (lots of drifting)

Simple:

Keep it over 5mph.

AlanS is infamous around these parts
Check the torque on the motor mounts

I have the same motor mounts and they don't squeak. I remember when I installed them that they do require quite a bit of torque. They might be a little loose.

Had this same problem... Check the diagonal bars that run from the subframe to the chassis. Those bolts can become loose. Drove me nuts until I found a bolt loose up by the jacking point at the unibody... It's probably unrelated to the mounts.
