Moog K5252 but they are to hard now. Back in the day, they were good.

the Quietline mounts I recently bought on eBay look suspiciously like shock absorber grommets/bushings. Hmmm

Probably are!
Are they hard as a rock??

I'm away from my Cub Cadets for a few months so can't try to evaluate them for hardness. I just remember that my first impression when opening the package was the similarity to the rubber shock absorber mounting bushings on my '56 Chevy. Maybe somebody will attempt to compare the eBay ones to some originals and take a stab at how comparable they are. Price wise there's a pretty big difference.

Someone sent me a set of the blue mounts to try out, said they were the greatest. I suspect they were nothing more than shock mounts.

I went to the trouble of installing them as I recall, started the tractor, took it for a short spin and promptly took 'em back out and ordered the correct mounts and installed them.
