Loose radiator/condenser mount?

Hi All, I was poking around my engine compartment and noticed that the radiator/ac condenser assembly was (to me) loose. Although it is retained there is about 1/4" of play at the top front to back. It seems to be locked OK at the bottom. Is this normal?

Yes...it's usually held in by rubber isolators...if it wasn't the engine vibration would shake it to death.....then again....I could be wrong.

Old thread but I just fixed this issue so I figured I would put in my $0.02

Rubber Insulator Part #: BE8Z8125A $11.17/each. You need 2.

Same for left/right. Pop the covers back on and there is very minimal radiator movement now.

Took about 10sec per side and $22. (y)
