This is a Genuine Nissan left-hand engine mount, designed to secure the engine block to the chassis on Y61 GU Patrols fitted with the TB45 petrol or TD42 diesel engines. It is a direct-fit replacement for the original LH (passenger side) mount, responsible for absorbing engine torque and vibration to prevent it transferring into the vehicle's cabin and driveline.
Over time, the factory rubber compound is exposed to constant heat and stress, causing it to perish, harden, and crack. A failed mount can no longer properly support the engine, resulting in excessive movement, harsh vibrations, and clunking noises during start-up or shutdown. Replacing a collapsed mount is crucial to prevent strain and potential damage to components like the driveline, exhaust system, and radiator hoses.

Replacing this engine mount is a moderate-level workshop task. The engine's weight must be safely supported, typically with an engine crane or a trolley jack with a block of wood under the sump, to allow access for unbolting the old mount. While it is a direct replacement part, access can be tight. It is highly recommended to replace engine mounts in pairs to ensure even support and vibration damping across the engine block. The corresponding right-hand engine mount is often replaced at the same time.
