front lower engine/transmission mount

[onlyoneromeo]

i need to replace the front lower transmission mount. the one that keeps the engine from rolling back when u get on the gas. is this easy to replace? can i do this in my driveway or is this something i need to take to the shop for some special attention?

and when i go buy this mount is does it go by a special name i need to be aware of to make sure im getting the right one?

thanx n advance

That mount is 3 bolts and can be changed super easy. You don't even need a jack to do it, just remove all bolt slide mount out and slide new one in. And they are call roll stops. You can either buy a new one or use the old and do prothane inserts (highly recommended) STM: PROTHANE MOTOR MOUNT INSERTS | 90-99 DSM | 13-1902 | 13-1901
Or search Rockauto or any oem parts vendor

could he use window weld in the new mount as well instead of the inserts? or do both possibly fill it with window weld and mush the insert in

 

[onlyoneromeo]

if i fill the mount is there gonna be room for an insert?

Only if you press in the insert before the window weld has cured/dried.

Just get the proper inserts. Use window weld for windows, and those situations when you need a custom rubber part that isn't available.

Do not get those inserts that use the stock rubber they suck. Get a full poly insert. I think blackgst makes them on here. Or get a solid aluminum insert. The poly or aluminum will be far superior.

Cost effective and definitely better than an insert.

went and got a mount from autozone. waited all day for one parts store to order the wrong one then went to two stores to get it from autozone. i spent more time running around than i did actually replacing the part. smh...

thanx for all the advice guys.
