Default Accidentally stripped a transmission mount

I was installing my inner fenders today and was putting the screws back into the transmission mounts when one of them stripped. It looks like the 2 speed transmission mounts are sold out or out of stock everywhere I look. I want to replace the mounts eventually but is it OK to drive the truck with only 3 screws holding the motor/tranny? I figure it should be OK since it's a low speed vehicle but just wanted to make sure with all the torque it's putting out.

Does anyone know where I can get some 2 speed transmission mounts by any chance?

Thanks!

Don't see why it wouldn't be ok to drive it. Just keep an eye on the other 3 and be sure they stay tight.

Thanks, that's what I'm doing. This truck is way too much fun to keep parked.
