FRONT ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET ASSEMBLY, RENEW




Each of the two engine mounting bracket assemblies comprises a mounting rubber (1 Fig. 1) with an insulator (2 Fig. 1) clamped between two brackets (3 & 4 Fig. 1).

The front of the engine complete with attached mounting bracket assemblies is seated on support brackets welded to the front crossmember and is secured to the brackets by a single fixing arrangement comprising nuts, bolts and washers.

- Jack up the vehicle and secure the engine hoist (Service Tool MS53 C) to lifting eyes of the front engine lifting brackets.

- Remove the front engine mounting bracket assembly to front crossmember fixing screws. These can be accessed via two round openings positioned underneath the cross-member.

- Remove any obstructing parts preventing the front end of the engine from being lifted from its seating.

- Lift the front end of the engine/transmission unit slightly and detach the front mounting bracket assemblies from the lower engine housing.
