1997 Ford Thunderbird Motor Mounts
I purchased a Chiltons manual for my 1997 3.8L T-bird to replace a motor mount and there is no mention or picture of the mount. Does anyone know how to replace a motor mount. (Driver side)

WTF? 11th time trying. 1 piece at a time. Disconnect negative battery cable.

RE: 1997 Ford Thunderbird Motor Mounts
Remove anything that could be stretched/broken or bumped into when jacking engine up.

RE: 1997 Ford Thunderbird Motor Mounts
This includes shift lever,wires,fan shroud,etc. Place a 2X4 under and across the oil pan on a jack. Don't lift yet.

RE: 1997 Ford Thunderbird Motor Mounts
Remove the motor mount through bolts to the sub-frame. Jack up the engine. Remove any accessories on the mount (oil cooler line clips).

RE: 1997 Ford Thunderbird Motor Mounts
Remove motor mount bolts to engine block. Remove mount. Re-assembly is reverse. Mount to engine bolts torque to 25-35 ft.lbs. Through bolt 35-50 ft.lbs.
