Upper Driver side Engine Mount

[donkeykong]

Does anynone know if it's easy to replace this engine mount?? do u need to support the engine to get it out and in?? or can it be done without it???

i saw that mine has rip in it, not totally ripped but on the side...pls advise

you will need to support the engine but its easy enough to do, just take off the two 17mm nuts and the 17mm bolt and 10mm earth strap and pull the upper bracket off then its three 14mm bolts that hold the mount to the body.

k so u u can put a jack under the engine or something??

 

[leejw87]

yeah i put a jack and a soft cloth under the engine just to support it slightly when removing the bolts, engine wont move that much even if you took the jack away due to the front and rear mounts, but the jack provides enough support to line the mount up when re-assembling it
