I am new to the forum so pardon the intrusion,


I purchased a front motor mount for my 2010 maxima and noticed that it appears to be larger in size. My question is due to my being a novice when it comes to cars is:
Being that it is a hydraulic mount, will I have to compress it prior to mounting?
It appears to be about 3 inches larger in height.
I would like to know before I take it back to the auto parts store.


Thank you.
