im not a newbie but got a newbie question how do u install car customs upper and lower engine mounts thanks
the lower u just unbolt the old and put the new one in. For the insert, you havve to move the coolant tank, take off the metal piece above the mount, and then slip in the insert. you might to support the engine while doing the insert, and it might also be good to use some soapy water as well.
Hey Newbies; Dont Search Ebay, i got what you need right here
Redneck posted some good links for you. If the upper mount is an actual mount and not an insert, you'll have to get a jack and support the engine from underneath. Put a 2x4 on the jack and make sure it sits against the bottom of the engine (don't force it up). Remove the coolant reservoir and unbolt the OEM mount. Install the new mount and return the bolts to their proper places. You may have to move the jack around a little bit so all the holes line up well.
Good luck, bro.

Every car has engine mounts, and they are a pain to change. Just wanted to point that out, so if you don't need em, don't change em. Throw the insert in the top.
Ban low-performance cars, not high-performance ones.
A pain????? That was easy as hell and I change them outside with a jack and jackstand... took about 30 min (I could have done it a lot faster)
He have an eco, so the upper one is a full replacement
thanks guys i appreciate ther info

I forgot that Karo has a package deal with a lower mount and upper insert. Sorry about that.
