Is it possible your jeep has a transmission from a wrangler (YJ)? That looks like a YJ mount.

This does not look like a normal Cherokee transmission mount. What manual transmission do you have? All the mounts I've seen for a 2.5 with manual look way different than that. Are you sure someone hasn't swapped in a different setup (motor/transmission combination) than stock?

Here's something closer to what you have:

Or maybe something from a grand Cherokee?

You are in Denmark and have a VM 2.5 turbo diesel, don't you?

That mount is used on diesel export Jeeps only and is not found on any Jeep sold in the US.

The Mopar p/n is 5205-8539. you can Google the p/n and see what you get.
Here is a possibility from a reputable Jeep dealer who sells online.

Ha! That would make sense. Kind of left that detail out that it was a diesel. Not common at all here in North America. Good catch.

Default I'm searching for same transmission mount.

So I am currently searching for this same transmission mount. My jeep is not a diesel or an import though. I have a 98 Cherokee 2.5l gas 5 speed manual with the AX5. I have this same mount for my transmission. We're you able to find this mount? I've contacted Napa in USA, Canada, and Germany. Germany is giving me the run around. Do you have a link or anything to where I can find one? I've been looking for weeks now. Jeep USA was also no help at all.

It's the same with me. I searched on google and in the catalogs and did not find a part number. It seems to be a ghost support. Maybe only the rubber bushing can be changed.
Are you sure it's an AX15 transmission?

And if you can, please measure the dimensions of the bushing for me because here it takes a long time for any jeep part to arrive and I would have to sit with the car immobilized
