You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 4573773 fits your vehicle.

Engine mounts seldom require attention, but broken or deteriorated mounts should be replaced immediately to prevent damage or wear on driveline components. During the check, the engine must be raised slightly to relieve the weight from the mounts. Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands, then position a jack under the engine oil pan with a large wood block between the jack head and the oil pan to prevent damage, and carefully raise the engine just enough to take the weight off the mounts. Inspect the mounts for cracked, hardened rubber or separation from the metal backing, as the rubber may split down the center. Check for relative movement between the mount plates and the engine or frame using a large screwdriver or pry bar; if movement is noted, lower the engine and tighten the mount fasteners. Applying rubber preservative may help slow deterioration. To replace a mount, disconnect the negative battery cable from the ground stud on the left shock tower, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands. Place a floor jack under the engine with a wood block between the jack head and oil pan, then raise the engine slightly to relieve the weight from the mount to be replaced. For 1995 through 1997 models, the lower front engine mount is attached to the lower radiator support, so the radiator and air conditioning condenser must be supported when removing the engine support module. Remove the fasteners and detach the mount from the frame and engine, taking care not to disconnect more than one mount at a time, except during engine/transaxle removal. Installation is the reverse of removal; use thread locking compound on the mount bolts and ensure they are tightened securely.

To check the mounts, raise the engine slightly to remove the weight from them. This involves raising the vehicle and securely supporting it on jackstands, then positioning a jack under the engine oil pan with a large wood block in between to prevent damage. Carefully raise the engine just enough to relieve the weight from the mounts.
