Default Passenger Side Motor mount question EZ

I was going to do the 3m window weld on my mounts, got to the Passenger side upper mount and noticed that there was a bolt missing or so I think.

Going from the rear toward the front of the car: This is where the bracket that bolts to the engine mount and the engine.....

I have a Stud with a nut, then in the middle there is a nut that you have to get from underneath, and the third hole I have nothing but I assume there is another stud and nut that go in it?

I went to the parts page for mounts and I cant really see a bolt going into that hole.

The mount should be unbolted by 4 bolts from the inner fender area under the hood directly under the battery tray. Then all you have left is the bolt that runs through the middle of the motor mount bushing. After this, it should be in your hand free to do as you wish.

Hey brad, either explained the wrong mount location or something but I think he was talking about the passenger mount from what he stated in his post. I could definitely be wrong though.

Nah, I just misread because I've got half retarded in my blood like usual. I need to stop drinking that stuff... lolz

On a more accurate note for the OP, you don't need to put anything in that mount because it doesn't do anything for stability of the drivetrain. It is merely vertical support. The three you need to worry about are the front lower, rear lower, and drivers side under battery tray.

Yes don't mess with the passenger side. The motor mount kits and inserts you buy do not replace the factory passenger side. After doing the other 3 you will experience a huge difference.

More on topic, I have the three replacement from Energy Suspension and motor doesn't move an inch when revved.
