I get how to undo the driver's side mount, but how do you undo the passenger side? I am going to do my idler arm soon. Thanks, Seth |

I just changed both mounts last week. There is a ¾†nut under both mounts in K member that can be accessed from under the car almost in the same location as nut holding lower control arm. Jack up front of car, remove wheel, and you will be able to get the nut with a deep socket and extension on passenger’s side. Drivers side is a bit more of a PIA due to the funny angle to get onto the nut, remove plastic splash shield, it can be done with various combinations of sockets, and extensions depending on how high the car is jacked. If you have a sway bar it may make the job a bit more of a challenge, keep adjust height of jack to find sweet spot. Make sure that if you have a cable operated throttle pressure not to pinch it with top transmission when jacking engine. |
