Need help with engine mount replacement
ok, so I got the cattman engine mounts (front and rear) and the front mount is no problem at all....but the rear is a bit*h the bolts that hold the rear mount to the frame can't be removed because the transaxle is in the way. Any one ever dont their engine mounts WITHOUT removing the trans....please help

Just drop the frame that the motor mounts sit on; there are only 4 bolts. You will have to remove the bolt(s) that passes through the center of the motor mount(s), then the whole thing should drop down.
When you put it back together, don't tighten the motor mount to frame bolts until you have all of the other bolts started. Also, don't forget to torque everyting up.
