Yes great deal and good info on identifying bad mounts. That deck is money btw wow looks great

I just rebuilt my M12 in the 1204 and replaced its mounts. They were so bad that when it ran, the cradle was pounding the frame and it sounded like it had a really bad engine knock. Also in that series, I found out that the side of the exhaust pipe out the front had a groove worn into the side of it by the grill slats because of the bad mounts. Replaced them with some like new rubber ones from a quiet line as they apparently were the same still years later and it also has the "cradle mod" from the factory.
