transmission mount on a CJ
Whats the best way to change one of these? I have a 76-cj5 and the shift
lever moves considerably when the engine is under a load.
I was just wondering how to support things while the skid plate is
removed..doesnt it hold the tranny and TC up?
thanks guys!

I actually had printed out that page for reference, a couple weeks ago, as
I did mine. It was far more helpfull than the Chilton manual.

Re: transmission mount on a CJ
I would be checking the engine mounts first. You can have someone watch
the engine as you let out the clutch in 1st while holding the brake
down. Do the same in reverse. If the engine lifts on either, you have
a busted mount. To check the tranny mount, I just lay under and lift
and push on the tail piece to see if it moves around.
It has an outrigger mount likely too.
You can put a jack or axle stand under the tailpiece or right at the
front of the tranny/skid plate to hold it up, but I shudder at the
though of trying to remove a skid plate that old. Visions of grinding
off nuts, spun nutserts and snapped bolts and welders keep going through
my head....
I think I would try and undo the mount, then lift up on the tail piece
to try and get the old mount to slide out.
