DIY: Engine and Transmission mounts

PharmDZ · 02-26-2017, 08:13 AM

Just finished up my engine mounts yesterday and this was a big help, thank you. That crows foot helped me break the drivers side top mount free and the rest we practically did by hand after I had PB blasted the crap out of it. The passengers side was a bit trickier, but my friend had a short 14mm wratcheting wrench he fit in there and was able to use a super long extension to brace against something and use the leverage to break that one free. Otherwise it was super easy.both came out after just jacking up the engine a bit and wiggling it free. I didn't have to take the whole bracket off the engine which I think made it easier for them to remove for me. Can't wait to drive the car later! Time to finish up the rest of my fluid changes...
