Time will tell, but,I went with the MOOG K5342 mounts for my 1000
It cost $10 for the 2 boxes at O'Rielly's.
The engine is in very nicely.
The mounts are polyurethane which should resist oil better.
These tractors are old, they are gonna leak oil, they need something more oil resistant than rubber.
If I had a brand new K301 going in a tractor, I would consider Cub Cadet mounts, otherwise, I need a longer life material.
If Cub Cadet gives me tha same material that was in the 1974 tractor, I would expect to get 2 years live out of them.
We each get our opinion, mine is MOOG.
IH did not do everything perfect, or I would not have had to deal with this.
