I vote for taking it to a machine shop. It cost me $10 to remove and
install the mount.

To remove old insert:
assemble a hacksaw inside the old insert (in the rubber area between the
bolt sleeve and the rim) and cut carefully through the outside of the
insert. Once you cut this the tension should be releived and you can
remove the old mount easily.
 
to insert the new mount:
you could do it yourself, with a big vise and/or a BFH, differential
heating of bracket cooling of mount, etc... as been mentioned here
before... The best option as I've done a few of these, I would say is
take it to a shop who have a press, it'll save you alot of headache.
 
As for orientation of the mount, strickly heterosexual, um I mean bolt
sleeve should sit above center when mount is unloaded, as weight of
motor will center things out when you get things put back together.

hey all, I just received my new passenger side motor mount.  I have the
mount holder(the part you press it into) off of the engine, with the old
mount still in it.  How should I go about pressing it out and getting
the new one in?  Also, it DOES matter which way the new mount goes in,
right, since the bolt hole is way off-center?  Thanks- 


Rob
