  2. Push studs through the front transmission mounts and screw into the front-axle cross member.
  3. Fasten transmission mounts on the front-axle cross member and on the body.
    NOTE: If the hexagon-head bolt (M10 x 90) was undone on the rear transmission support/transmission mount, it is important to tighten the front transmission support first, then the rear transmission support and the M10 x 90 screw on the rear transmission mount last.
