Thanks, I’m trying to figure out where this would connect to my car. I’ll look in front. Those threads fit into something pretty big.
As I understand it, you need to lube the caliper pins with silicone paste and use copper grease (I think that’s what Eric called antiseize) on the area between the back of the pads and the shims (though Eric didn’t do this), and the tops and bottoms of the pads where they fit into the caliper. Can I use Permatex dielectric tune up grease (silicone based) for all of this? I have a tube of it.
Thanks

silicone greaseHere are three more photos. One is a close up of a steel piece that extends down. It seems to lie between the engine and the transmission. BTW, I won’t actually be removing the motor mount, just removing the two silver bolts and the rusty nut (these are visible in the 1st photo below). I included a link to the page in the manual where this is described (the manual says two nuts and a bolt, but there are two bolts and one nut).

[quote=”barneyb” post=102833]Show us more pictures of the underside of the engine and transmission. What I am seeing with the board looks like you may smash the transmission pan. Remember, when you remove motor mounts what you put under there will be holding everything up.
BTW, the condenser is in front of the radiator.[/quote]
