Replacing all 4 Transmission/motor mounts, Video How to do
Posted: Sun Apr 18, 2021 9:44 am
I've replaced my front transmission mount (next to the radiator in front) multiple times, the last time ten days ago. Did not help with getting motor torque movement down, so I'm guessing that the rear tranny mount at 202,000 miles has turned to mush. I ordered the set of four mounts from Rockauto, going with Marmon/DEA ones which seem to be the best available ones. About $80 for all four.
I've searched this forum many times for details on replacing that rear mount, but only found a lot of comments that it's a real PITA to do. Then yesterday I found this video of a young guy replacing all four mounts on a 2005 Bonneville in his driveway with basic hand tool; says it took him six hours total. Nice video closeups and running clear commentary on the details of replacing all four mounts. Replacing the rear mount starts at 6:42; says loosen sway bar/ remove bolts to get to rear mount. This guy could be the next Chris Fix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aONnwakKCGo
