Hi all,

Well after spending some time under the 'ol quat I am further perplexed.  A=
s it turnes out, the motor is indeed resting on the front subframe.  It is =
resting on an outer most point tilted towards the passenger side.  Further =
inspection revealed (at least to my "novice" eye that the motor mounts do n=
ot look bad.  I loosened the pass side motor mount from the bottom and it l=
ooked OK.  On the other hand however, the drivers side tranny mount is defi=
nitely shot, not sure of the pass side.  Would this cause the engine to til=
t to the pass side?

Anyway, what is the "go/no-go" gauge for a motor mount?  I know I should go=
 and just replace both motor and tranny mounts at the same time but I have =
a hard time freeing up like $175 for a complete set of mounts right now.

As always, Thanks in advance...

Carl
