Forget touching the motor mounts like in other videos. This method worked great. Dont jack the tranny until the top tranny mount bolt & the top right bracket mount are off.
This video is different than the other TRQ trans mount replacement video for the same platform (Chevy Traverse, GM Lambda platform) from 3 years ago. I used this new procedure very successfully on a 2014 Traverse. Just be careful with the crowbar. What may make the removal difficult is when the old mount is broken in half (where the aluminum housing meets the steel base). Because of it being broken in half, I had to knock them out with a drill hammer. Getting the new one in was tricky, especially when installing and torquing the lower rear bracket bolt, which is behind the mount. However, using the method in this video, I was able to torque all three, just with swivel extensions. But, this is the best method for removal and installation.
+@brianmfournier We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out!

What are the symptoms of a bad trans mount? I'm getting a clunk when accelerating from a stop, can't tell if it trans or motor mount...
