• It is necessary to loosen the threaded connection on the transmission mount to prevent putting too much tensions on the mount.
- Loosen the bolt - 2 -, if equipped.
- Remove the left and right bolts - 1 through 6 - from the subframe diagonally and in steps.
• If the subframe is moved, the front of the vehicle must be lifted at the jack points using an axle lift.
- Using a plastic-coated tire iron, slide the subframe with the engine mount and stabilizer bar in the appropriate location.
- Push in the center of the subframe near the lower control arm between the subframe and the body longitudinal member.
If you do not have a plastic-coated tire iron, wrap a standard tire iron in adhesive tape.
