    Do these look bad/worn ? Could this cause knocking when I turn my steering wheel while backing up or pulling off ? Doesn't do it all the time, but when it does, it's a loud and hard knock.

    Simulate the situation by observing the suspected motor mount(s) while having a trusted helper rev the motor in PARK and turning the steering wheel. Repeat in gear with caution.

    Seen any excessive motor movement or heard any noise during the simulation test?

    No simulation test done yet, I'll try it sometime before Friday (payday).

    Umm.....yes.

    If you don't have a trusted friend to not run you over while simulation. There are other ways to test. Most I know are old school. And I'll probably get my balls busted if I post them up. So.....I'd go with advice already posted. :)
