560sel motor mount update
Thank you to all who have helped.
The motor mounts were split! Now I know why the engine would shake during idle. The engine lifted about 2 inches with the one new mount.
The two other small bolts were a pain. People next door went to eat and came back. I was under the car the entire time.
I will do the other side (drivers side) today. Should I loosen the pass. mount in order not to damage the new mount?
Should I take apart the linkage in order to access the drivers side?
Has anyone used blue locktite on the bolts?
I went to Pep Boys to buy the smaller allen. I cut it to about two inches. I then put the cut allen in to the bolt. Holding the top of the allen with my index finger - I turned the allen with a small combination wrench. It was the only way to turn it without having to fit it many times.
Thank you
Nick Mendoza
