Motor mounts and the mounts

[Jimsun]

Im looking for suggestions on the brands rockauto offerse

I will be putting polyurethane on them so please. I hear duralast and oem. but how about beck brand?

I know there is 3 engine mounts
Front

Front Left
Beck/Arnley

Transmission mount
DEA brand

 

[Jimsun]

Any advice guys? Im planning to get them adap before the it gets too cold to work outside

Beck Arnley is good from what I've heard.

 

[Jimsun]

Did i cover all the mounts? 3 engine & 1 trans?

 

[RedRyder]

3 motor, 2 trans

 

[Jimsun]

I only see one in rock auto.
This is for a 2001 5 spd manual LX trim

 

[RedRyder]

Hmm, might just be one then. I couldn't find the parts diagram that shows the trans mounting. But the other results I found seemed to indicate one. Your trans is on the passenger side, correct? You could take off the wheel and you should be able to see it.

you should go to PartsGeek.com

the seach is way better there

also autopartswarehouse.com

Anchor mounts are good if your on a budget

 

[Jimsun]

Ahh okay. I would want something thatll last quite awhile.

Ive decided to go for beck/arnley for motor.
Now its either DEA or Anchor for thr trans.

Is it difficult to replace the mounts?
Ive just change my clutch master and slave cylinder. How much harder is it from that?

The mounts are easy to change except for the rear. That's because you will need to take your time and possibly remove the solenoid(if there is one on ours) to help wiggle the mount out. Also use a 2x4 and a floor jack under the oil pan so that you have engine support while changing mounts.

For me, I would only change the ones that are broken. Saves money, and allows you to maximize the parts you have already. Remember, the OEM mounts are the best, aside from race type mounts, which have drawbacks for daily drivers.

If you go the Beck/Arnley make sure you pick the front mount designated to the correct transmission type. The have separate mounts for 5spd and auto.
Their other mounts are labeled accordingly. Go to their website for specifics.

If you are going with Beck for 4 of the 5, just get Beck for the last one...lol

Now.....have a beer
