Engine Mounts, How hard to replace

Post by MyGQ »

Ok well 16 years of use has finally taken its toll on my engine mounts, the driver side rubber mount is as the french say, Le Farked.

I got myself some new ones today and i am wondering how hard a job it is to replace the little buggars. It is as simple as jacking up the engine slightly, unbolting the old one and putting the new one in?

Correct..

simple as jacking up one side and unbolting and puttin new one in.

Might be a little fidgety but you'll get it in.

We did the left hand one in camp in about 3/4's hour in and out with the help of one of those air bags that run of your exhaust

You loosen off both (but only unbolt completely the one you want to remove), jack up motor, replace......


Note the following:


The other one is probably "le farked" or near "le farked" too. :P
Aftermarket ones often are a pain to fit and not quiiiiiiiiiiiiite identical


Have fun.
