Motor mounts

How difficult is it to put a eurathane motor mounts in a 1G with the motor still in the car? Cause I know the Front and rear mounts are just inserts that work in conjunction with the stock mounts. Just wondering before I start ripping stuff apart.

Re: Motor mounts

The fronts are inserts. The rear need to be pressed out. Its not hard. Just takes time and patient. The rear one is a pain in the arse to get too though. It is easier to do if you have an engine jack. You might want to see if you can find used motor mounts have them pressed out and then start replacing one at a time. Have fun. Oh if you are not a horse power freak just do the fronts and rear. You might hate it if you do all four.

Re: Motor mounts

Like he said, do just the front and rear. I had all 4 which was definitely not good for a daily-driver. The front and rear alone will stiffen things up enough to really improve your shifting, and the remaining side rubbers mounts should take the edge off for normal driving. These are a real pain in the ass to install though, the mounts will need to be removed from the car and you'll either have to burn the old mounts out with or torch or use a press to get them out/in.

the ones I had were full mounts all the way around, no inserts.

Re: Motor mounts

Yeah, just do the front and rear. I burned the old one out of the rear one. I just like playing with fire though...
