put some gasoline on them, light them on fire with your blow torch, come back 30-40 minutes later, and tada the rubber is gone. then take your saw and cut that little tiny ring that is on the inside out. you might need to cut it in 3 spots and hammer the ring out with a big screw driver and hammer but thats how you do the mounts.

if you just have the inserts, then you don't need/want to get the rubber out first. do you have the poly motor mount replacements?

well i got one of the big ones off by sprayin the shit out of it wit wd-40. and i got the mounts and the inserts btw.

do you have the energy kit or the prothane kit ?

For everyone's future reference, which kit is total replacement and which is inserts only? Or are they both inserts and replacements together?

prothane

so the front and rear are insert tranny and upper timing belt side are solid. tranny and timing belt side you have to burn out. front and read you just insert in and thats that.

Just heat up the mount with a heat gun and the metal ring will slide right out. That’s what I did, it was very easy to do.
