Broken Engine Mount - 16/04/10 06:43 PM

Hi All,

I have a 2005 X with a broken engine mount. I have heard from some people that replacing a broken mount is not that hard, but no one I have talked to has done it on an Xterra.

What does everyone think... is it easy, medium, or hard to do? Also, can anyone point me in the right direction on some instructions on how to replace an engine mount?

Thanks in advance.

If the gen 2 is anything like the gen 1 you just remove the nuts from the top and bottom and then lift the motor up (either with a jack from below or an engine hoist from above) on that side just enough so you can slide the old mount out and drop the new mount in.
