Start the Engine Mount service and repair operation by taking out the generator from both accessory mounting bracket and washer solvent reservoir. Serially disconnect and safely place the engine coolant switch and front headlamp electrical connectors. The engine support fixture (J 41803) with universal engine support fixture (J 28467-B) should support the engine but ensure jacking occurs outside engine areas to prevent damage. First setup engine supports and then lift the vehicle to gain access to the wheels. Remove wheels and tires from the front side of the car. Use the ball joint separator (J 42188) to remove tie rod ends from the
Steering Knuckles by unfastening their stud nuts. Worker should first remove the stabilizer shaft bolts while using tools to detach the links from lower
Control Arms before taking out the stabilizer shaft. Move to the Power Steering Cooler which needs all bolts removed before disconnecting it from the crossmember. Then position the cooler upward. Install the transverse
Leaf Spring compressor (J 33432-A) between the spring by attaching it to the spring then start compression. Start removing shock absorber lower mounting bolts before loosening the lower ball joint nuts to separate lower ball joints with ball joint separator (J 42188). Detach all electrical wires from the crossmember followed by removing brake pressure modulator valve bracket bolts then move both the ebtcm/bpmv and its bracket out of the crossmember area. Place a transmission jack under the crossmember while removing its mounting nuts extensively before discarding the nuts. The procedure starts with removing both the transmission jack and the crossmember followed by removal of the upper Engine Mount nut and subsequent removal of the Engine Mount itself. The installation procedure calls for scrapping bracket bolts from both the engine block and the bracket if necessitated. The first step for installation begins with mounting the engine bracket followed by tightening its bolts to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). Install the upper mount stud first then the nut while facing up the metal end of the mount and properly positioning the locating dowels before tightening the nut to 65 nm (48 ft. Lbs.). Begin by installing the crossmember followed by new nuts which require tightening force of 110 nm (81 ft. Lbs.). Then repeat this step by installing the Engine Mount lower stud-to-crossmember nuts while tightening them to 65 nm (48 ft. Lbs.). Rewire all electrical wires to the crossmember clips while you also mount the brake pressure modulator valve bracket using 27 nm (20 ft. Lbs.) torque specification. After placing the transverse Leaf Spring onto the crossmember you should install the shock absorber lower mounting bolts while torquing them to 28 nm (20 ft. Lbs.). Reinstall the lower Control Arm ball joint studs to the steering knuckles before securing the corresponding nuts by tightening them to 70 nm (52 ft. Lbs.). After removing the transverse Leaf Spring compressor (J 33432-A) from the spring position install the power steering gear while secure its bolts at 100 nm (74 ft. Lbs.). After reinstallation of the Power Steering Cooler you should tighten its bolts up to a torque of 11 nm (97 inch lbs.). Fit the front stabilizer shaft to the crossmember then install Tie Rod End studs to steering knuckles along with their nuts and tighten to 45 nm (33 ft. Lbs.). Put front tire and wheel assemblies back then torque wheel nuts to 140 nm (100 ft. Lbs.) before returning the vehicle to its previous height and taking off the engine support fixture (J 41803), universal engine support fixture (J 28467-B) from the engine. Put back the washer solvent reservoir followed by engine coolant switch and front headlamp electrical connector installation then mount the generator to the accessory bracket.
