RE: Mounts...

["Julie Macfarlane" <juliemac@telenet.net>]

I have done the rearmount already, but not the others. The front one looks
really loose. I can't find a drawing to show me where the bolt hole is
supposed to be.... Top or bottom of the "ring".
When I drop the transmission, can I drive the car on to ramps? To remove the
CV joint bolts, the book talks about rotating the tire and that couldn't be
done that way.....

>>>WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN INTO? <<<
 Could I talk one of you gents into driving to NY to save me from this????
(hand to forehead...) No, I must do this......
