  • Motor mounts and trans mounts install tips

    got my motor mounts and trans mounts in the mail today got a link to installations but could not find anything on the motor mounts and trans mounts for the BMW e36 M3. Did I miss it? Tips and photos appreciated.

    well, got the trans mounts in, pretty straight forward on that. went together easily. I imagine the motor mounts will be a bit more difficult.

      Engine mounts are not too bad. I Put the car on jackstands. Loosen the motormount bolts (4). Using a floorjack and a small 2x10, I jacked up the motor from the bellhousing. This allowed enough room to remove the stock mounts. Installation is the reverse although you will have to fight the last one in as the mounts will be taller than your worn out removed ones. Make sure to leave them all loosely installed until both sides are in. Also remember to transfer the passenger side heat shield. Once it is all done, pull the floor jack and torque to spec.
