i just bought the full awr motor mount set and i was wondering how the side inserts work. im pretty sure the front and rear are just taking out the old and putting in the new but those side ones have me stumped. (sum how to or can someone send me a link to where someone has already explained this) thanx

For the passenger side, you take the MM out...then put one side then the other, like a sandwich...then use the tie-strap to strap them together...kind of crappy but it works.

For the drivers side, take the MM out...then do the same thing, but instead of using a tie-strap, you use the bolt that goes through and just insert back and tighten.

Very easy...easier than the rear mount!

hey vic, for the side motor mounts (both side) does the motor have to be propped up...to install?

I just used a jack and a 2x4 to hold it...you might need to lift it a little to insert the bolts back in. no big deal.

front is cake might want the jack under then engine so you can get it at the right angle to get the bolt through. The rear is a pain and you have to go at it from the top and bottom to get to it. there is a really nice write up on it if you search. it involves taking the engine harness loose and being able to get to the 3 bolts much easier in the long run.
