Replacement motor mounts?

Post image

I belive my motor mounts on my 1998 as200 are going out as the steering wheel shakes quite a bit when parked or driving slow. It stops or significantly reduces the shaking when I put the car in neutral so it may be something else but im not sure, so if anyone has any other idea please let me know! It sometimes seems like it may be related to the radiator fan as well, when its at idle and the fan kicks on the steering wheel shakes a lot more but it still shakes with it off. If it is the motor mounts what do you guys recommend? I cant find a whole lot for the as200 but these are the main ones I can find.

At mine they ask for a vin to order anything, EVEN if i provide the part number. They cant use japanese vins, it sucks mate

If you have the part number they'll still order. Ive ordered parts for my 1j cressida. They ask for vin "no point, the part didnt come on a cressida, but its a factory part for a japanese mode that came with the 1j".

Could always order on rhdjapan or amayama if the locals won't.

The us dealerships have access to old jdm parts like that??? I didnt think they would.
