Chrysler 68083790AB INSULATORPKG-Engine Mount

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 68083790AB fits your vehicle.

To check the mounts, the engine must be raised slightly to relieve weight from them. Begin by raising the vehicle and securely supporting it on jackstands, then remove the front wheels and tires. Position two jacks, one under the crankshaft pulley and the other under the transaxle bellhousing, using a block of wood to protect the components while raising the engine/transaxle just enough to relieve the mounts. Inspect the mounts for any cracks, hardening, or separation from the metal plates, and check for movement between the mount plates and the engine or subframe, tightening any loose fasteners as necessary. Applying rubber preservative can help slow deterioration.

For the right mount: 1. Remove the coolant reservoir and power steering line bracket fastener. 2. Raise the vehicle and support the engine. 3. Remove the engine mount bracket bolts and the engine mount bolts. 4. Replace the mount and tighten the mount-to-body bolts to the specified torque. 5. Lower the engine and tighten the mount-to-bracket bolts. 6. Installation follows the reverse order.

To replace the right mount, remove the coolant reservoir, raise the vehicle, and remove the under-vehicle splash shield. Move the heater tube out of the way, then remove the engine mount bracket-to-timing cover support bolts and the engine mount bracket-to-mount bolts. Support the engine, remove the engine mount-to-body bolts, and the body-to-mount bolts from underneath. Replace the engine mount, tighten the body-to-mount bolts, lower the engine, and tighten the mount-to-bracket bolts. The installation follows the reverse order.

For the left mount: 1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. 2. Raise the vehicle and remove the throttle body air inlet tube and air filter housing. 3. Support the transaxle and raise it to relieve weight from the mount. 4. Remove the mount-to-transaxle and mount-to-body bolts. 5. Replace the mount and tighten the bolts to the specified torque. 6. Installation follows the reverse order.

For the rear mount, access the top rear of the engine compartment to remove the mounting bracket-to-block bolts. Then, raise the vehicle and take out the mount assembly. Replace it with a new one and secure it to the subframe and engine block with the appropriate torque.

The mounts should be inspected for cracks, hardened rubber, or separation from the metal backing. Additionally, any relative movement between the mount plates and the engine or frame should be checked.

Engine mounts seldom require attention, but broken or deteriorated mounts should be replaced immediately to prevent damage or accelerated wear on driveline components.

For the left mount replacement, disconnect the negative battery cable, raise the vehicle, and remove the under-vehicle splash shield, throttle body air inlet tube, and air filter housing. Support the transaxle and raise it to relieve weight from the mount. Then, remove the mounting bolts and replace the mount, tightening the bolts to the specified torque. The installation follows the reverse order.
