Bob, sorry I didn't see your post earlier. The drivers side mount is not that difficult to replace.


  It looked intimidating enough.  The passenger-side mount looks like it'd be very easy to do, and the front and rear mounts, while more awkward, looked like I could do them if I was determined.  I guess, if I cannot actually get to where I have a clear view of the part in question before I begin dismantling things, I get intimidated.  While I was replacing the VSS, I made a specific point of trying to get a look at this mount, and could not.

  That was my thinking.  I had the transmission replaced a few years ago, so I know what that costs.  $262.46 now, or more than ten times that much for a new transmission in the near future.  Even as much as it hurt to spare the $262.46, this wasn't a difficult choice to make.
