Question about replacing motor mounts


Recommended Posts

So the mounts on my 2.5 are shot.

 

The driver's side looks easy to get to. The pass side does too, but it looks like the bolt comes out towards the front of the truck. About 1" behind this bolt is the alternator.

 

am I missing something? Any way I can get this bolt out without having to remove the alt?

IIRC the bolt went the other way when i had my TBI 2.5l,i put in custom mounts without removing the alternator.

 

For clearance reasons i put the bolt the other way when i converted it to MPI so i think i would have to pull the alternator if i ever need to rebuild my mounts.

 

Either way the alternator comes off pretty easily.

yeah I definitely plan to put the bolt in from the rear, someone wasn't thinking ahead last time these mounts were replaced.

 

The alternator doesn't look to be horrible to remove, it's the 2.5L.... so it's not exactly taking up a lot of room.

 

thanks for the input!
