All bolts are out, and the mount is removed from the car. You can
immediately see how deformed it is compared to the new mount. The engine

Engine mount replacement on the 1996 Saab 900. The old mounts were severily
worn and broken, which caused excessive engine movement and shifting
difficulty at high boost. To firm things up further, the transmission
mount has been upgraded with a sport polyurethane mount from
Taliaferro.
Tools:
- 17 mm socket (rear mount);
- 16 mm socket (rear and transmission mounts);
- 15 mm socket (side mounts);
- 13 mm socket (gearshift linkage);
- 10 mm socket (throttle body inlet, plastic shields);
- 8 mm socket (plastic shields);
- 8 mm Allen socket (passenger side mount);
- two L-shaped 3 mm Allen keys;
- long socket extension;
- ratchet handle;
- torque wrench;
- flat screwdriver (throttle body clamps);
- hydraulic jacks and stands.
