I just finished mine today. The small little ears that hang out go on the top. Then theres a long side and a short side. On the drivers the long side faces back and on the pass the long side goes foward. My pass was a cinch but the drivers wouldnt line up for ****. Just be so very careful you dont cross thread. Very easy to do. I got one cross threaded.............able the force it it straight but fought it forever.

yea luna thats a great write up. helped alot. i cross threaded one bolt but said **** it after like 10 trys of goin in and out the same way and jus left it in there. i also put in a torque arm mount, wasnt as bad. i never did the driver side mount yet and not looken forward to it think im gonna pay someone. i also heard a clunk when breaking after i left the shop. i hope it was it all jus settlein in and i have no more vibrations or nething that ppl say. but dont really feel and inprovment. ex. for the tranny mount that was put in a couple weeks b4

Just did mine, both tabs went up. The install was definitely a pain in the ***. Usually after i do something the first time i dont mind doing it again since i know what to do, but i can honestly say i never want to replace these again.
