Planning to install TRF uprated front mounts in place of my cracked old mounts. Seems simple enough, but Murphy's Law still operative - at least around these parts. Any potential problems or is this something even I can do alone without f^%$#ing something up?
 
No experience with the uprated mounts but I would recommend moving the engine rearward as much has possible to make changing the fan belt easier. I only have about 3/8" clearance between the front on the damper pulley and the rack tube. It is a tight squeeze to r&r the fan belt.

Mine is ok.I've changed the belt at least once - no problem. I'm just worried that the holes won't line up and the engine will be left hanging on the jack out in the driveway. My repair jobs always take twice as long and routine things go wrong.
