A buddy of mine has that in a hanger in the backyard. He does all his own work on old cars and has some real muscle in that shop. It was a fun day!

The subframe didn't come out though. We simply unbolted it a little and lowered it about 1 inch. I didn't feel like taking it completely down.

Nah, didn't do the trans mount yesterday. May do that another day.

The Energy Suspension Motor mount kit comes with the driver's side trans mount included . Not sure where you can find them separate, unless someone sells them separately. I will be putting my trans mount in later maybe, but still not sure. It's so damn firm with just those 2 that I can't really see it making THAT much of a difference. My engine does NOT move upon startup or high rpm revving!
