Just did the front mounts. What a mess!!! There are no torque specifications for tightening the mounts to the frame, just from the mounts to the engine. I can figure out why - at times all I could work with was a regular 6 mm allen key! That is with the engine lifted so high that (a) I had to remove the top radiator hose for the fan shroud to clear, and (b) make sure I did not break off the auto tran dipstick tube! It took me a good five hours!
But the old ones were shot, I mean really really shot.
