C 2500 Truck 2WD V8-5.7L VIN R (1997)
CAUTION: When supporting the engine to replace a mounting, raise the engine only to the height required to provide clearance for mounting removal.
It may be necessary to drain the cooling system and disconnect hoses to avoid damage when the engine is raised. Be careful that control linkage and
wiring are not damaged from raising the engine. When replacing a single front mounting, both mountings, should be detached before attempting to raise
the engine. Failure to do this will place excessive stress on the attached mounting when the engine is raised.
1. Support the rear of the engine to relieve the weight on the rear mountings.
2. Remove the mounting to crossmember nuts and washers.
3. Remove the mounting to transmission bolts and washers.
4. Raise the rear of the engine only enough to permit removal of the mounting.
5. Remove the mounting.
