That is why it is the likely choice to do both flex disks and the center bearig and support at the same time. The rear disk is the one most likey to go bad and is easiest to change, not too bad. the front is a different story, not fun, and not easy. If you can stomach it, have a shop do it for you, I dont like paying them either, but it is not a fun job at all and like usual, I was not even satisfied with myself when I was done, it was just a pain. Sorry no better guidance

I helped someone replace the transmission mount once. We had to disconnect the driveshaft and the car was on a lift in a heated garage with every tool imaginable at hand. I wouldn't want to attempt this without a lift!
