i think you'll have to take the bracket off your trans/engine before you can get access to take out the mount

I've done it. HAVE FUN! It take Raene and me an hour and a half. Depending on your mount kit. You will have to:

1. take off rear mount.
2. Lower crossmember botls down to the lowest they'll go
3. wrestle and curse with it.

Have fun!

Well I have done it on an Eg before, so I think it should almost be the same. First yes,you'll have to take out the rear bracket, side tranny mount, front tranny mount (support with Jack), and then you push the engine towards the front. And then you go from there. LOTSA FUN!

Here is how to do it:
Take out the rear mount bolts, the bracket bolts and the bolt that holds the rear mount to the bracket.
Then you can lift the mount and bracket and turn it sideways and seperate the mount from the bracket.
Now take the mount out.
Installation is reverse of removal. You may have to rock the engine back and forth a little to get the bracket off the rear of the engine.
