so it hit a rail pretty hard, the radiator is completely smashed and leaking fluid. the front two engine mounts are beyond repair. how do i go to replacing the motor mounts? can i just jack up the engine and replace the mounts? or do i have to use a crane and pull it out while i replace the mounts?

thanks

is it worth replacing? theres a 3500$ SS prelude with busted headlight and fender in my area.

 

post pics so we can see how bad the damage is....

 

no pics, atm but i was just wondering how do you go with motor mount replacement?

Take old mount out, put in new one. The engine's not going to move much with just 1 mount out....and if it does just put a jack (with a piece of wood or something soft) under the oil pan to get it where you want it.

 

its both front mounts, so i just jack it up, take out old ones and put it back? i've never removed the engine mounts before so sorry it this is annoying ^^

 

im manager at a body shop, if you can get some pics posted, ill tell ya if its worth repairing.
