Hi pbastiaans,

Thank you for the donation.

Front mount has to be disconnected first.
Remove rear mount through bolt.
Use jack to lift rear of engine higher to gain access for removing the rear mount.
Lowering the frame would help if above does not provide sufficient clearance.

When you say lowering the frame can you be more detailed. I have removed center bolt and bolts attaching the mount to center trans support. There is not enuff clearance to remove mount. Are you speaking of the support that holds lower control arms?
