Default Gxp Motor Mount Flip

Does anyone have instruction (pics) of how to do the motor mount flip. I think i have understood what i have read, but really don't want to screw anything up. Ive got that black cloud that follows me around. Lastly, is there a prefered mount to use when reinstalling? Thanks

i havent done the flip, but i know its quite a pain to get the old piece out if you want to install a poly or MSP “TBv2” mount. unbolt the mount part from the car, put it in a vise, use alot of wd40 and a long flat screwdriver. i tried cutting mine and it ended up being alot of extra work.

the flip is basically you keep the mount installed in the car, put the bolt in without the dogbone, tighten the bolt, lube it and then try and rotate it 90 degrees by tightening it more until it moves.

The MSP3800 mount is a good investment unless you drive a lot in could weather. Others have reported that that mount is a little rougher than the stock mount.
