Click to expand... Don't think it would make sense to tighten it without weight on it, you'll just have to re-tighten it once its down.

K KrayzieFox Member : 01 MP3 Turbo Feb 8, 2010 #3 I found it easiest to just undo the bolts and take out the front mount without any support or lifting of the engine. It works fine and makes it easiest to put the new one in.
