WTF!!! Rear Mount.. not mounted?

[b-morr]

So, I'm taking a wild guess in saying that this picture is a picture of the rear engine mount. I took out my intake manifold and noticed there is no bolt going through the mount. :chair:

Where can I find a bolt to go through there? And how can I lift the engine up so the bolt goes all the way through?

Man, that sux You should be able to get a bolt from Home Depot or Lowes. I have an extra mount bolt I can send you if you have a problem gettin one. You can try to use a prybar or you should be able to lift it enough by jacking up the engine. Just make sure you put a block of wood on the jack so you wont mess up the bottom of the engine!!

WTF Holy crap. I'm surprised that you couldn't feel your engine shifting around when accelerating.

For something important like that your probably best off using oem hardware. Hardware store bolts of the correct size may work fine but why take a risk. If you do go that route get bolts that are at least grade 8 if not 10.9.

Personally, I would try a junkyard first. Let me know if you need the sizes. You're also missing on of the bolts that mounts vertically to the frame. There should also be one mount-chassis bolt on the other side, make sure that's not missing also.

Yeah, jack with a block of wood under the oil pan will work. Don't go too far with the jack, you're just looking to relieve a bit of weight.

Your missing 2 bolts, one through the mount and one holding the mount to the subframe.
should be able to find either at any hardware store or go to a junk yard and grab them.

either use the engine hooks up top with an engine hoist or put a jack with a block of wood under and jack it up a little bit but id recommend the hoist if you have access.

I know about the second bolt, but I have one to fit in there. Where would I get an oem bolt to go through there?

Do these fit a 6bolt swap?

Yessir. The 6 bolt swap does not affect which rear mount you use - you will always use the 2g rear mount. Thus the 2g mounting hardware must be used.
