I finally managed to pull my engine and pump out to deal with a pump shaft leak.

Had a fun time getting to the front left mount. I noted the mount seemed to be loose yet the bolt could not be removed as it seemed stripped, so I cut it off.

Checking out the Bobcat site, I noted 2 different mounts types based on Ser # (mine is A5GS200009), with mine having the straight type spacer #19. The other style seems to have a tapered spacer, but I noticed my rubbers #22 seemed to have taper moulded inside the rubber.

Is it normal? The reason for the ask is I noted my hydro static pump was basically only held on with one bolt. One of the two at the shaft end just fell out and the large one at the gear pump end had cracked off the mount plate. Is it possible bad engine mounts or a bad design (straight spacer+ tapered rubber) caused lose of 2 pump bolts? I'm lucky I found this before the one and only bolt didn't let go.
