Where is the motor mount on the passenger side? My transmission seems loose when I put it in drive and reverse and the car seems to shake a lot. Do you have a diagram and instructions on how to replace it?

Here is a simple way to make sure the mount is bad. Have a helper put the park brake on and hold his foot on the foot brake. Open the hood. With the engine running, place the vehicle in drive and give it a little gas. Do the same in reverse. If a mount is bad, the motor will lift more than 1/2" from where it rest. It may actually look like it's going to jump out of the car.

Let me know what you find.

NOTE: HAVE SOMEONE YOU TRUST HOLDING THE BRAKE ON FOR YOU.
