I didn't notice much difference with solid mounts on mine. Although I had lots of rattles before. I have sorted most of those out. But, I used to own an old Wheel Horse, and my 1200 certainly doesn't vibrate any more, and I don't think it's any worse than any other old tractor with a big single cylinder engine.

They didn't use iso-mounts before the QL, and those machines seemed to do alright.

As for cost, if you plan on getting "official" Cub Cadet mounts, solid is cheaper. Even used ones run a pretty penny.
