Anyone who has successfully replaced the rear motor mount (roll resistor)on an ATX car, please give me a clue. I got the old one out, but getting the new one rotated into place, and slid into the mount receiver bracket is quite a bit harder. I have already dropped the rear subframe down a couple inches, but the gd heater hoses prevent me from rotating the mount into place. Is there some trick to this operation? Or, do I just continue to mutilate my arms trying to get this thing in there?
When I took mine out (removing engine) I had a super long extension on the driver's side in the wheel well to remove the center bolt holding the halves together. I haven't put my motor back in yet, but I was planning on bolting the bottome half back to the frame and then lowering the engine until the center hole is halfway in alignment and then using the long extensions bolting it back down.
That sounds great when the engine is out... I'm trying it the hard way. Engine is still in, all hoses etc still in the way. I know there must be a way, short of dropping the whole subframe / drivetrain.
