The old mount was holding by a thread,the rubber material was shrunken and gone for the most part. If I ever have to do this again I will definitely drain and remove the coolant hoses....they were the most difficult part of this job. I could not get a torque wrench on the top two bolts...I got it tight and it will have to do, I torqued everything else to the correct torque and the two bolts that go trough the center of the mount did have locktite on them...I used red since you have to have it out anyway to change the mount. I also installed the new rear control arms so as soon as my headlights get back I am set...the rear wheel bearings will have to wait until after the wedding.
Thanks for everyone's help
especially Pedro my old friend
