Thanks Ted. I did not realize they were different (front and back). I will do some more inspection to see exactly which ones I have.You have to buy the entire mount. Cast into the rubber is a number which indicates what mount you have. In your photo I can see the #100. The front and rear mounts are usually different numbers. Check the other mounts to see what number they are to make sure you are getting the proper ones. Make sure that when you replace the mounts that the new ones go to the same location as the old mounts. It's easy to mix them up because they look pretty similar.
Don't forget to rob a bank on the way to the Yanmar dealer in order to pay for this little gem. This invoice is eight years old now:

As Ted mentioned, be sure to get the same strength mount as you currently have. Record all the measurements between the mount and the engine (at the mount to be replaced) for an easier shaft alignment after you're finished.
Don't want to shock you $$$$$$, but if all your mounts are original from 1988, you may want to consider replacing all of them at once. Take a look here:

.............. for a few measurements I had taken on my original mounts to see if yours have sagged any.
Holy moly...those are expensive. Thanks for the heads up. I am going to have to really look at the old ones before spending that kind of money on 4 new mounts.Don't forget to rob a bank on the way to the Yanmar dealer in order to pay for this little gem. This invoice is eight years old now:

If you take a look back at that previous post, the gap shown should be 3/8" which is what the new one read. The worst thing that can happen to them is to soak them with diesel fuel, which is why I replaced that particular one.Any good indicators to tell if they are shot?
