Based on this research, the article also introduces some results in building up anti-vibration rubber and the process of diesel engine mounts manufacture. Development of the method to test the vibration resistance of the diesel engine mounts has initially resulted in some good results such as the natural frequencies are lower than 20 Hz and the damping factor is higher than 10. Keywords: anti-vibration rubber, engine mounts. 1. INTRODUCTION Engine mount is a typical anti-vibration product made from rubber [6]. The engine mount is designed to link the engine and the vehicle body. It must achieve a vibration reduction effect (avoiding resonant frequencies) while reducing the impact force on the chassis as well as displacement to the lowest level. In order to meet these requirements, manufactured rubber must achieve elastic characteristics and
