Powertrain/Drivetrain Mount Neutralizing

NOTE: There is no procedure for neutralizing the powertrain/drivetrain mounts. To check the alignment of the powertrain mounts visually, proceed as follows.

1. Loosen the rear support insulator.
2. Loosen the powertrain/drivetrain mounts.
3. Support the powertrain/drivetrain in an approximate position and height, so that the right - hand mount and left - hand insulator align over the studs on the powertrain and drivetrain to allow the fixings to be assembled through the large holes in the bracket support insulator without overstraining.
4. Tighten the fixings to the powertrain/drivetrain.
5. Tighten the body side fixings.
6. Tighten the rear support insulator.
