Are the engine mounts difficult to replace?

I guess the rear engine mount is deteriorated. Is this an easy fix?
Does anyone have the procedure documented?

Piece of cake, honestly, which surprised me, as I expected it to be bad. Mine lasted 'till about 95K, or so, then the engine 'rock' started to look like an E-W GM's...not good.

Also, I'm not convinced the delay introduced by the computer when it retards the spark, when running on sub-89 octane fuel, makes matters better. I can't prove it made ours fail sooner, but if *I* can notice it, the transmission mount sure can! I've since been better off, career-wise, and always have my wife spring for the 'good stuff'. ;-)

Best of wrenching!

I replaced mine a couple of years ago. Don't recall it being too tough a job. You will need a floor jack and a 2X6 block to distribute the weight across the bottom of the tranny pan.

Should you replace all 3 mounts while your at it?

My mechanic had it done in an hour or two. Mine were shot to hell.

I would love those pictures. I need to replace only one of these, but I plan to replace them all as long as I am under there. How do you get them off?
