    motor mounts

     



    i have a broken passenger side motor mount. I was told that all i have to do is put a jack under the motor. undo the bolts from the body. jack just a little and then undo the bolts from the block. then reverse to install new ones. Is it that easy? What do i have to be careful to look out for? I am replacing both of them. The motor mounts look to be original based on the design that is for sale now. Thanks

    Sounds about right to me. There may be other details to watch for as well in general;

    1) Distributor clearance as motor is jacked. May need to remove cap or entire unti in some cases.
    2) Headers, fan etc clearance
    3) Keep hands and fingers out of harms way at all times.
