I know this video is a year old, but I figured I'd add a quick note. The long bolt was screwed into the transmission, and the short bolt was screwed into the frame mount on mine. Not sure if this helps clear that up.
I had that on this car as well. It was the lower control arms in the front. The issue is the front bushing. I just replaced both front arms and that solved the problem.
Not sure what you mean? Will the engine shift? No. The engine sorta hangs from the two top main mounts. This just limits the engine twist under load. It slipped in fine without any shift. Now if the top two mounts are in poor condition then it might be an issue. I forget how many miles my car had at the time but it was well over 120-130k when I did this job. Engine didn’t move.
@Mustang5L5 thank you for the response. Unfortunately the transmission mount has failed so I'd be going ahead and installing new motor, transmission, and torsion mount
So im getting an extreme seems like knocking when under load around 50-70 mph i feel it alot on the pedal think this would be the top transmission mount?
My top engine mounts were in ok shape, so I can’t really say what symptoms of those mounts being bad would be. If you revved it hard in neutral while parked, I would think you would see the motor shifting on the mounts. With my bottom mount, the only symptom I had (aside from destroying flex pipes) was a slight (but annoying) vibration at 70-80mph. Would feel it in the seats more than anything. That went away when I changed the lower mount.
@@Mustang5L5 Did you feel this even at lower speeds? I swear i have this same problem. A vibration passenger side..not horrible up to 40mph (noticeable but not horrible) but high way its a good vibration. Ive replaced literally every suspension component and new tires. ordered the part from rock auto so we shall see.
@@colinlefebvre5026 mine was definitely 40-50mph and up. Used to look over and see the pass seat vibrating. I didn’t notice it at lower speeds. Replacing this part took care of that.
SOMEONE SAYS WHAT TOOLS ARE NEEDED. You’re appreciated. Now I know what to take home.

Im trying to chase down some torque steer when shifting 5-6 at cruising speeds. Wonder if this could be it. Some say lower control arm bushing...

@Mustang5L5 ok. Cool. I ordered a couple moog replacements. I sure hope that's it.
So this wont shift when i take the old one out and make it difficult to put the new one in

Do you have to jack up the transmission for this?
No. Not unless your engine mounts are failing. If they are in decent shape no need to jack anything just swap this part out.

@@Mustang5L5 did you feel it in steering wheel? That's what I'm getting and like a tapping vibration
