During the check, the power unit should be slightly raised to relieve the load on the suspension. Raise the front of the car and secure it on stands.
Place a jack under the oil pan with a block between the jack head and the pan and raise the power unit enough so that the weight of the power unit is supported by the jack.
Check the condition of the power unit suspensions for wear of rubber bushings and the connection of rubber and metal elements.
Check for relative movement between each rig's mounts and the power unit. If movement is present, lower the engine and check the rig's mounts under load.
The powertrain mount may be removed if the weight of the powertrain is supported by one of the following alternative methods.
Support the weight of the engine from below using a jack, with a block between the jack head and the pan and raise the engine just enough so that the weight of the engine is supported by the jack, or by raising the engine with a winch.
Once the weight of the power unit has been supported by the lifting mechanism, the mounting bolt of any of the hangers can be unscrewed and the hanger replaced. When replacing the hanger, pay attention to the location and orientation of the hanger and any associated parts (see Fig. 2A.37, 2A.38).
Installation of the suspension to its original location is performed in the reverse order of removal. Check that all previously removed washers are installed in their places.
The final tightening of the mounting bolts should be done after all supports have been installed in place, while the rubber parts should not be twisted or overly stretched.
