Motor Mount Replacement Instructions/Video?

[YukonCrazy]

Need to replace the driver side motor mount and haven't been able to find a complete write up on swapping out a mount. A youtube video would be ideal, but haven't found one for a NNBS.

not questioning you, but how did you figure out u need a new mount...i always wondered...

Sure thing. If you look at the following thread, you will see a video of what a broken mount looks like on page 1. On page 2, I posted a video of my motor.

Holy crap...ur engine wants to fly away!!!! that will do it!

It certainly is rocking. Now I need to figure out how to replace that motor mount.

Well I did some reading and as I figured u have to support engine up before going under there and taking bolts appart. If U have a cherry picker u should be all set. Here is a thread I found as well.

I suppose it would be wise to replace the passenger side at the same time?

 

[Smokymance]

I would. All that rocking probably put a lot of strain on the other side. Trans mount too maybe. Shouldn't be hard if u remove the cross beam under engine.

I also assume I want to go with ACDelco OE part?

You could. But also this Oem is the one that busted. Lol. That is enough right there to confuse u. How many miles on car.
