Default Motor Mount Installation

As my name indicates, i drive a prelude that needs two motor mounts.


I was just wondering how much labor usually is on installing/replacing these. in my case, it's the front and the rear.


Does it require the engine be lifted out?

and for tech talk's sake, is it a difficult job if i attempted it on my own?

TIA

its not that bad to replace them with somebody helping you, its just a matter of getting them all to line up again once you take them out.

the front is fairly simple to do, but the rear is a pain in the ass ! I would get a friend to help you with it. And no it doesnt require the motor to be lifted !

Both front sides are really easy.
The rear didn't take to long and wasnt that hard but i did mine on a lift.
