PCM Engine Mount – Single | 97296
Isolate engine vibration and protect your hull with an OEM-specification engine mount for PCM inboard engines. Engine mounts do two jobs simultaneously: they support the weight of the engine on the stringers, and they absorb the vibration and torque pulses that would otherwise transmit directly into the hull — causing noise, fatigue cracking in the stringers, and accelerated wear on the drivetrain.
A mount that has deteriorated — rubber that has hardened, cracked, or separated from its metal plate — no longer isolates effectively. The result is increased cabin noise, vibration felt through the deck, and misalignment that stresses the shaft, cutlass bearing, and transmission coupling. Replacing mounts at the first sign of deterioration is far less costly than the drivetrain repairs that follow.
Best Use Case
Best suited for replacing a deteriorated, collapsed, or oil-contaminated engine mount on a PCM-powered inboard vessel. Sold individually — order the quantity needed for your engine configuration (most PCM inboard installations use four mounts). Also the correct replacement when vibration analysis or a visual inspection reveals a mount that has separated, hardened, or lost its rubber-to-metal bond. Commonly replaced in sets during engine removal or drivetrain alignment work, since mounts of the same age tend to deteriorate at similar rates.

Parts Desk Insights
Confirm the correct mount for your engine model and serial number before ordering — PCM engines were fitted with different mount configurations depending on the engine family and installation. When replacing mounts, the engine must be lifted off the stringers, which is also the right time to inspect the stringer mounting surfaces for rot, delamination, or fastener pull-through. After reinstalling on new mounts, drivetrain alignment must be checked and corrected — new mounts change the engine height and angle. See the PCM Starter Housing Spacer Kit 97452 for shim hardware that may be needed during reinstallation. For the full range of PCM engine components, see the PCM Marine Engine Parts collection.
