The rear motor mounts (there are 4 of them) are around $15 each. To replace them, you need to remove the muffler/cat, the heat shield, and the rear crossmember while supporting the engine with a jack. It should only take a couple of hours depending on how much time you spend cleaning parts. Make sure that you get new exhaust gaskets for any/all exhaust connections you open.

Apparently I'm going to have to replace an engine mount in my '88 Westy. Can anyone give me a ballpark cost estimate on this? -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mail2Web - Check your email from the web at http://www.mail2web.com/ . |
