1989 XJ 118,000 miles Auto 4x4 4.0

I will keep this short. Summer 2019 changed my motor and transmission mount. Used a cheap autozone mount, Anchor. It was the original sti on there. They were shot but no noises. Everything was fine after changing for about a couple days. Then it slowly started to develop a knock on the crossmember. Annoying. It was only occasionally but got worse and worse. And especially on acceleration or bumps. 100% the exhaust pipe hitting it. I do have a tiny exhaust leak in the pipe, where the guy that welded it missed. Just pointing that out.

I continued to drive it but finally changed the transmission mount again. Used a more expensive transmount but still from a big box store name brand. Can't remember the name, I knew I was wasting time. I just knew it. Sure enough, did it exactly the same. Solid an awesome for a few days to a week. Then I heard it knock. Eff. Now it has only continued to get worse over time.

I want to put a mopar transmission mount on it as I know the rubber is thicker and stronger. But I am having trouble finding one. Found one where advanced auto has it for $75. However when I put in the part number on a mopar site it finds zero results. I am going to continue looking but I only want to a put mopar on there, and hopefully be done with this annoying problem, and also I'd like my transmission more secure.

The last time I looked the mopar mount was around $45 to $55. I just need to find one. Maybe the Rock Auto Mopar mount is the right one but I just almost don't trust it.

I want to say the part number is 52002334.

That pretty much has to be it. I'll double and triple check. That price is not too bad either. You ever bought from there?

Edit: When I put that part number in Google it brings up only Crown Automotive Transmission mount. I'm not taking a chance. This is once I am only getting mopar.

Edit the edit: It is bringing up the Mopar part on some sites like mopar overstock, mymoparparys, chryslerfactoryparts, and ebay. I guess these sites are correct in saying they have an actualy mopar, I just don't trust because it's so hard to tell by looking.

For anybody in the future. The part number listed is correct. But just call your local Mopar dealer and get it. They'll either have it or can get it in a day or two. All those mopar whole sale sites don't actually save you anything when shipping is added. Every single one adds just enough shipping to bring you up to the local dealer price. Hate to spend $68 on a mopar transmission mount when so many other cheaper options are available, but this one of those times where it makes a differencw to use mopar.

I too am looking for a part...bolts really. After a trip to Mendocino NF, I found the 2 fasteners that hold E-Fan to frame had completely fallen out, fan pulled connection apart and was leaning against PS. My question is how did fan connect...there is nothing to thread into on the frame and I don't know how there could be a nut attached behind the frame. Can anybody take a look at theirs and tell me what kind of fastener holds it? Pics would help!

Clip nuts.
Something like this:


Gotta Napa near you?
They have this big loose binder if yours is anything like mine.
All sorts of parts like that. Not illustrations but the actual part.
Makes matching up stuff real easy.
In your case finding something that will work.
