Go for the transmission mount...that is an easy job. The mounts are not likely bad after just 5 years and they collapse when bad. The rear bushings (multi-link arms) are significant in tracking at high speeds. As for subframe mounts, I have not done mine yet but at 185k or so, they SEEM to be okay.
