L1501.02A8

It retails for 82.50

A sure way to tell if its bad is if the mount is resting on the front isolator bolt. I dont have any pics but there are some on the badweb just do a search.

This can get expensive as even fitting a new mount doesn't mean the problem goes away, it will happen again.
That's why I now have this (see below) and although the mount showed signs of tearing again after only a few hundred miles when it was replaced, this part has made it last thousands (7-8k) of miles and the mount still works fine.

The front isolator has been upgraded. No recall of course, and they make you buy an new bolt which you don't need for about $14 if I recall.

The original part number on my 2004 XB 12S was L0501.02AB, the new part has a different part number, L10501.02A8. Since these parts are not in a consecutive series, your parts person may not find the part, even though they actually have it in stock.

In a previous thread, I showed how the isolator can be replaced without jacking up the motor, by using a ratchet strap instead.

Mine was replaced about 12 months ago and was told it was a newer part but it still cracked.
The basic design is flawed so they may have improved it but it's still wrong.
