I hear horror stories about dismantling the rear flex disk. How easy is this job and what do I have to watch out for?
I have tomorrow all day slated for this, so hopefully I will have the chance to install the subframe mounts.
What I still don't understand is why does the service manual describe the replacement of the subframe mount by just removing the mount hex bolt one side at a time and no mention of disconnecting the drive shaft from the differential.
In my case, it's the rear of the subframe that seems to be stuck. Could it be some flexing of the subframe that's binding it and not allowing it to slide down? I tried to use a pry bar on the rear subframe mount area but I wasn't able to budge the subframe at all. The mount just sits about an inch down while the upper chassis guide is plainly visible going through the mount.
