Mounts won’t effect alignment, lower control arm bushings will .

Yes. Checked suspension and it looks like that’s next on my to do list. Control arms, sway bar bushings, sway bar end links and outer tie rods. But for today, I got the trans mounts in and am working on that.

Not that it matters, but I am a 47yo woman. And I do my own car repairs. Very rare I come up on something I cannot do myself.

I got the motor mount and front trans mounts in place. The rear mount is binding. I assume it will be ok to lift the transmission a bit with a jack and block on the trans pan like I did on the oil pan to get the engine mount aligned.

The driver side trans mount is going to be no fun. It’s under the fuse block. Not sure how I’m going to get to it. Any advice?

From the top , extension and swivel socket , or reach down under the wires and wrench it loose. I believe you have to lower that end of the transmission to get the mount out then install new one.

ok. I’ll be on it in about an hour. I’ll take some pics to go along with a simple how to post since hardly anyone even acknowledges this mount. 😏
