Just be sure to support the engine/tranny with a floor jack before you remove the mount, since you'll need to raise things up a little to remove/replace it. > Also while i was replacing the rear mount, i took off the big metal block > attached to the subframe.

The only reason I can think of that it's there in the first place is to change the resonant frequency of the drive train vibrations. With all the things that have been changed on some of our cars, it could either help or hurt things. Just have to try it both ways, I guess... --Holland [email protected] San Jose, CA
