Thanks. Are all three the same part number? Where did you get them?

There's only two, easy to replace with a bottle jack. I got them from Rocky Mountain Imports

What were the symptoms your were experiencing to want you to change them?

They're just cracked and there's a fair amount of movement. I just got the Delica and would rather just replace them. Super simple to do I figured why not. Hope they're not to expensive.

I had a pretty hefty vibration when idling and taking off from a start. I could really feel it in the 4x4 shifter. U-joints seemed fine, so did pinion. Trans mounts however looked horrible. I was just looking at the front diff mounts though, they also need replacing, and are a much much more involved job I think.

How much is a mount worth?

If I remember correctly they're about $125 each. No aftermarket options available and L400 specific. Same with the rest of the motor mounts and bushings.

That's crazy expensive. There must be something similar to these for another vehicle. I'll do some digging next week. I may even be able to make something. I mean there's really nothing special about the bracket they mount too.
