The nature of the mounts dictates the problem. If you need a soft mount that isolates the engine from the frame, by definition it's going to take a beating. It's not easy to engineer a "robust" mounting system that is simultaneously "soft".
I'm not familiar with the Cummins, but, you can rigidly bolt a 6 cylinder engine to the frame and not feel much vibration from it.
