That seems strange to me, I've never had problems with the motor mounts in any of my LUVs. Maybe I'm just not driving them right. You might want to look at the trans mount and make sure it bolted down tight and in good shape if you haven't looked it over for a while. Could be it is letting the whole works move around more than it should.

I'm not sure they will have anything for a LUV, but you might check with the parts department at http://isuzu.stcharlesauto.com/ for original equipment mounts. They might hold together better than generic replacements. I recommend you call their parts dept and talk to them as they will probably give you a better deal. They should be able to figure out what they got that fits but I believe Isuzu PUP mounts up to 86-87 or so for a G200 1.9L motor will bolt to the LUV, and possibly some of the later 2.3L and 2.6L mounts would as well.

I broke a left one on my 78 right after putting on a Weber and "testing" it out. It was old. I bought a new one... done. No more problems.
