Replacing auto tranny mount-easy?

Post by Fiat88 »

After I get the alignment sorted out. I'm planning on replacing the auto tranny mount as it looks like the PO messed with it by adding rubber blocks to it. From looking at how its mounted, it doesn't look too hard to replace. Anyone one done it before, similiar to changing out the motor mounts, which I did?

I changed mine last year and don't remember it as being very hard. It was easier than the motor mounts. If I remember right after you drop the support and take the nuts of the trany studs you have to rotate the mount one way or the other to clear everything.
