Engine Mount Replacement (Front)

Removal Procedure

Notice: Broken or deteriorated mounts can cause misalignment and destruction of certain drive train components. When a single mount breaks, the remaining mounts are subjected to abnormally high stresses.

1. Remove the upper fan shroud.
2. Raise the vehicle. Refer to Vehicle Lift Points.





3. Remove the engine mounting through-bolt and nut (left side shown).

Notice: When raising or supporting the engine for any reason, do not use a jack under the oil pan, any sheet metal, or crankshaft balancer. Jacking against the oil pan may cause it to crack or break.
