Default Re: Removing rear Motor Mounts

Body bolts as mentioned above, and if you have a side mount spare, remove the mount from the opposite side first, so the engine can be pushed towards the side of the removed mount a bit. This will allow you to slide the mount on the side of the car with the side mount spare past the rivets that hold the side mount brackets. If you have dual side mounts and they are riveted on, good luck, I think you would need to pull the motor.
I just changed mounts on the roadster pickup, and that is what I found. A four pound hammer will slide the mount, even if it is stuck to the rubber. Remember it needs to be slid towards the back of the car, due to the taper of the frame.
