Removal Procedure

  1. Raise the vehicle at the frame. Refer to LIFTING AND JACKING THE VEHICLE in General Information.
    IMPORTANT: Properly support the frame and the body while changing the mount. If you are changing only one mount, the entire side on which the mount is placed must be lowered enough to provide clearance for the mount.
  2. Use the J 41602 in order to support the body at the pinchweld flange.
