Hope you know the mount on pass side has oil in it! The cheap ones don't' but the good ones do. I ordered all 3 mounts for my son's 2007 focus 140.00 //

@@kevinkollman9162 @SouthernBlessedHomestead do you need to put a jack under anything for the passenger side mount? My girls car vibrates like crazy and I’ve been suggesting the mounts have gone bad.

ramps work the best I have been working on the focus since 04 cant tell you how many on them I have changed they don't even make the pass side mount anymore in OEM only aftermarket

@SouthernBlessedHomestead 4 ай бұрын

I really need to get another good set of ramps, I have totally lost mine. I think I loaned them out and never saw them again. I no longer have this car, last October I got T Boned in the drivers door insurance totaled it.

If my theory is correct and you don’t wanna spend the time taking the top bolt out of the bracket then just loosen it and turn it out of the way, put the new mount in and turn them both together and hopefully they will go into place with a bit of force
