If the upper mounts were shot, then there is a good chance the lower mounts were also shot. The upper mounts restrict a lot of movement, and prolong the life of the lowers.
You should be able to inspect the front lower mount - take a flashlight and with the hood open (or it's really hard) look straight down between the engine and the fender liner, right about at the coolant reservoir. The mount is the circular rubber thing down there. If you see any signs of cracking in that rubber, it's shot.
The rear mount can be seen if you crank the wheel all the way to the left and look in through the hole in the fender inner liner where the driveshaft/steering gear comes out. It's harder to see.
