Stop in for a cup of coffee

I didn't get a good look but my transmission mounts busted too, engine was over to the side and the grouchy fellow was saying he didn't know how he was going to get a bolt out. The motor mounts were fairly new, replaced just over a year ago. Also the ignition key won't click into the position where it can be removed.

Click to expand...

Hook a chain up to the intake on the front each side, then raise the motor off the front motor mounts with an engine hoist and replace them...

Then drop the engine down with the new mounts on and secure them...

Then climb under and move the trans into a workable position and remove the trans mount and replace it with a new one...

The key won't click into position where it can be removed because the trans and engine are cocked and putting pressure on the linkages so they can't get to the park position needed to remove the key... By lifting the front of the engine with a chain and hoist, it will re-center the engine back into position and will help replace the old mounts and set it back down centered like it should be...

I would not let the grumpy guy make you think it's more involved than that... Some people like to ***** just to hear themselves talk....
