Transmission mount

[THEMADTYPH00N]

Is it possible to change a trans mount without removing the transmission? I've read some of the articles on tranny removal but I want to know if its possible to change the mount without disconnecting driveshafts, dropping crossmembers, etc....... Thanks

Yes.

chances are you'll need to drop the crossmember to get everything in and out, but it can be done without removing the whole tranny.

it is easy. loosen the bolts holding the t mount to the trans and to the crossmember. then jack the trans up pullout mount then reverse to get it back together. 15-20 minutes tops.

Do yourself a favor and SOAK those bolts with penetrating oil a day or so before you tackle them. I did and still managed to snap one off :evil: . Fortunately, it was one of the ones that bolted to the cross member. Corrosion can hold steel bolts into aluminum with knuckle busting, sailor cussing strength... HTH's

been there, done that. when i trial fit mine i took the crossmember out because it was bent, so i guess you can do it without taking the whole thing out. while you're under there, do torsion bar mounts as well.
