Motion,

If you get a chance take some pictures or measurements of the mount for the transmission.

I bought this one but I haven't changed it yet.


Also do the same for the mount at the rear of the engine. Mine doesn't look like it is worn out so I haven't even bought this one

Thanks

Paul

Will do. I will take a pic of the new one next to the old one before replacement.

To update:

I changed all three engine mounts and also the transmission mount. All three engine mounts needed changing, even the one below the engine. I thought I had taken pics of the old one but I guess I didn't. The rubber was torn but it's really hard to see where it's actually damaged. The bottom mount has a heat shield with two self tapping screws. The replacement from LR has the indents. When I removed the shield from the original to swap over, the screws, of course, broke. I did get the shield installed with other screws but I had to drill the indents, etc.

I also changed the transmission mount, I have attached pics for that mount. In hindsight, the old transmission mount was in great shape and did not need replacing IMO. On a side note I did get to replace the screws retaining the battery box as they disintegrated when trying to remove. The battery (and air box) have to be removed to re and re the transmission mount.
