Guys, this will be the third time replacing the motor transmission and dog bone mounts on the car listed above SE. My question is, when replacing them is there a particular sequence I should use in putting them back on? Should I do upper first than transmission etc?
Another question is should I torque all 3 after I have them all in or torque each as I put them in? If I’m correct the upper mount should be attached to engine first than the body correct?
And last question guys what’s the torque specs for all of the bolts on these 3 mounts? Thanks in advance!

Hi and welcome back.

The way, and or the order you do them does not matter at all. Below you will find the torque specs you requested.

Let me know if you need more help. And thank you for asking us.

Okay, I was just wondering if there was a sequence. Are the transmission mount bolts to body 35 ft/lbs and center nut 66 ft/lbs also 94 TRANSAM?
