HI!

Is it difficult to change the engine mounts on a 4x4 Sierra Cosworth?

 

Standing in front of the car then the right hand side is not to difficult to change. Remove the inlet hose from ic to trottlebody to get more clearance. I cant remember if the trottle body itself also has to be removed (I think i did), but that's only four 8mm screws. Unscrew the 19mm bold from the engine mount and than jack up the car. There should be enough clearance to unscrew the other two bolds (thought they were 13mm) and then change the mount.

The left hand side is another story. Since you cannot jack the car far enough there is no clearance to get the old mount out. So you will have to remove the engine mount holder that is connected to the engine aswell. This is hold by four 10mm bolds but can be hard to loose. Only use a tool with 6 flacks in it not the one with 12 (dont know how to explain it in good english) or you will damage the bolds. That's how I did it, don't know if there's a better way.

Good luck.

 

Thank you for the info. Started already with the job and hopefully
will finish tomorrow.
