Diesels have the counter balance.
a few on here have had to replace mounts, not a nice job. A fuel leak at the injectors can destroy the mount on that side.
Those here in Australia often get parts from over your way.

I take it this method works the same for the 4.0?
And how much 'play' is allowed/normal?
