Default Transmission Mount

How much does the transmission move around on a 1996 4.0 / automatic?
With the car up on a lift I was able to push the transmission up and about 2 inches and side to side maybe an inch.

Nothing is disintegrated or broken that I can see.

Just not the same as my other cars.

Does that sound right?

Not at all! It should move a little but not that much. Probably a dead or dying spring amd worn bush...

Is there a kit?

"What was a complete disaster was the old MHG7566AA part. It was our old friend Jaguar Orange Foam. It had completely disintegrated. The URO part I replaced it with is rubber, so from the looks of the other rubber parts, this is probably the last time I am going in there. Everything other than this "Foam Buffer" looked in good shape."

Let me know if you're going to purchase new springs. If you do, I have a spare CBC4744 I'm looking to sell. It's Jaguar OEM.
