Mitsubishi Galant Transmission Mount Replacement (Motor Mount)

2014-02-17
okay so right now we're gonna replace the driver side motor mount on a Mitsubishi Galant this one's a 1999 the driver side motor mount is actually underneath the battery you can see it tucked down in there the two little holes are the same two little holes that are right here your battery connection might be a little bit different than mine I just unscrewed these two little wing nuts right here and then the whole contraption just lifts up and away from the battery disconnect the battery terminals with the ten millimeter bolt you're in a little ledge for the battery there are two bolts here and then two bolts down here all of those are 12 millimeter and then there's two 10 millimeter bolts right here on this little wire bracket thing and that takes off the little shelf for the battery bracket alright so this little guy is bolted in directly on top of that bolt right there seventeen millimeter just took it right off and then I have my on each of the four bolts down there one here one there one there and then one underneath in that little slot they are 17 millimeters and so I stabbed my breaker bar right there with little extension piece 17 millimeter attachment I'm just breaking each of these loose all right so I took out the air filter box basically it's just a bunch of those little 10mm 10 millimeter bolts just are sitting around the outside and then unplug this as well just by pressing that down and pulling it out built-in millimeter screw right here as well and then that will give me more access to work on my motor mount underneath all these cables these things are in the absolute worst position possible so if you look at the new motor mount there's a hole through the center of it on this motor mount there is a 17 millimeter bolt that sits right here going through the motor mount and there's a 17 millimeter nut on this end that I have attached two wrenches to - wretches ones on this end ones on this end and so as I turn this one the other ones holding it still holding the nut still so that this will ratchet off if I didn't have both wrenches it would just turn and turn and turn and never come off and I would do this loosen up the center bolt before you take off all four of the base bolts that way this doesn't shake around when you're undoing it so in order to have enough room to get the engine to get that transmission mount away from the engine you have to take off this huge bar underneath the engine so these two bolts are 18 millimeters and these are the two bolts along on the backside of the bar this one and this one that need to be taken off and then once you take this bar off that'll let you lower the engine enough to let the give enough space between the engine and the frame to get that motor mount out and now there's enough room for me to lift this up and out so you can see the inside of there's just all torn up and that's what's causing the vibrations in the car anyway keep those little pads because you're going to install them on the next one as well with a little persuasion I got the new mount on the old bolts that are sticking out and now I'm going to lift the engine back up so that it will fit back in the holes that it needs to and with a little more persuasion I got the bolt in through that eye of the mount and it's sticking through right over here basically I just took it in there and kind of wedged it down so that it would line up the other end of the bolt with the hole on this side and then I have this little cat spot right here that I could use to kind of pry it up just metal-on-metal and kind of get the whole line just a little bit just make sure you don't hit the rubber or else it'll break the mount again all right so everything's back in place there's the two screws on the front of the bar the two bolts two bolts on the front of the bar two bolts on the back of the bar we have the engine mount in place underneath the battery batteries back on batteries type down boxes in place hoses are screwed down wires back together that's how you change the engine mount and the Mitsubishi Galant if you have any questions make sure to leave them in the comments below don't forget to like if this video helped you and don't forget to subscribe thanks for watching
