This last weekend I replaced the motor mounts.

I tore into the drivers side thinking it would be the easiest. After jacking the car and putting it on stands. I again used the trusty sissor jack and a 1.49 twoxfour that I bought at home depot to jack the engine up. I did unclamp the fan shroud but I don't think I even jacked it up enough for the fan to touch. The old one came out easy and after setting the old one next to the new one, I could see a good half inch between the two.

I did a little research before tearing into the passanger side. I took the air cleaner off and could now look down and see the inner bolt. This side took all of 45 minutes. I was lucky that all the bolts looked to be in good shape and I could get the 6mm and 8mm in firm before undoing them. I did use pb blaster on them before loosening. I also was lucky in that I didn't have to use the pry bar that I had bought for the project.

Yesterday I put the car thru and lot of stop and go traffic and now I notice a shake at idle setting at the light. I haven't replaced the driverside engine shock but the passanger shock is there and the rubber is in good shape. My next project will be replacing the tranny mount and the differental mount.
