Motor Mounts

Replacing the upper and lower torque struts on the engine is very straight forward. Replacing the center motor mount and transmission mounts is a bit more challenging.
Let us know if that's what you are talking about.
If you are talking about the suspension struts, that's a totally different animal. If you had someone replace those you will most likely have to take the car to an alignment shop, most folks lack the tools to align the front end.
I have experience in aligning vehicles from when I had my shop but lack the tools these days to do the job right. You can get it in the ball park with a tape measure so you can get it to a proper shop but home alignment usually causes premature tire wear.

I guess I just don't understand. For the top and bottom mounts you simply take them off and put the new one on. For the center one on that end you have to jack the engine up and down a lot but again it is simply pull the dead one and replace it.
For the other end on the transmission you do have to remove a lot of stuff but once you get to it also is simple to remove and replace.
Now my question is did you replace them all including the middle one on the passengers side of the engine?
