replace engine mount

[rhutch]

hey guys and gals,

I have to replace my right front engine mount and i was wondering if there was any kind of documentation on the proper steps to do this myself, I will have access to an engine lift and shop tools, I just want to do it right the first time

Cheers

Hey!

Truthfully, the rear mount is the tough one.. The other two are a piece of cake. I replaced all of mine at the same time and I used a floor jack under the engine with a wooden cutting board between the two... I would just put a tiny bit of pressure on the jack to suspend the engine, while you're replacing the mount.... The front and left mounts each take a few minutes to replace and there's really not too much to it. Just unbolt the old one, replace, and tighten back down. Easy-peasy! Good luck!

how did you know your mount was bad ? Did it break, I ask because I have evidence of fluid coming out of mine and I am considering replacing it
