Default What's it called? I need one...

...the little "donut" thingy at the forward aluminum tip of the engine platform that is a shock absorber and isolator for the "free floating" front end of an FE290 in a 2002 cart?

I have parts schematics and names, and that part is neither schemed nor named.

Who has one? Mine disintegrated. Is there is short term substitute so I can continue to run? Heavy off road use. Should I be concerned?

It's called a snubber. About $10 , easy install with a floor jack and a couple of bolts. I have cut a short piece off of an old radiator hose and shoved it on to quiet the clank a clank sound until I could order one. You might want to order two and keep a spare. They get beat up and go bad from time to time. https://www.amazon.com/Pro-Po-Parts-...7FQT6KW1&psc=1

My "short term" solution a few years ago was section of 1" radiator/heater hose wrapped around it twice with a long zip tie through the middle of the hose to hold it in place. Kinda awkward to get it on there, but it doesn't come off. So far that's been holding up really well. I've only replaced one in the last 4 or 5 years.

Loving this web site, just looked under my cart and mine is missing. Just ordered two. I'm guessing the ribbed side goes down?
