SR20DE Right Motor Mount
Plan of Attack
  
      | 
    I used the
      factory scissor jack with a wood plank and blocks to support the engine
      beneath the oil pan. This jack offers much better control than a hydraulic
      floor jack. | 
  
  
      | 
    The right
      motor mount, or "front engine mounting", is secured with four
      bolts: three into the engine and one through the insulator. | 
  
  
      | 
    The coolant
      reservoir and seat must be removed to allow access to the motor mount
      pivot bolt. The seat still remains in this image. |

    Here's a view
      from another angle. | 
  
What a Difference
  
      | 
    The old mount on
      the left shows signs of cracking and collapse caused by 77K miles of hard
      driving. The new part on the right boasts a superior pivot shaft and
      broader mounting feet. I hope it is less prone to burst. |
