Changing engine Mounts on a 93' 2.6. Is this even possible? - 10-14-2007, 03:41 PM

Tried to change the mounts on my 93' 190e 2.6 yesterday. I can't figure out a way to get to the driver's side mount from the top without taking the intake off. Has anyone done this without removing the intake? If yes, what type of tools did you use?

undo the top bolt from underneath (helps to remove the wheel)


Slightly tuned 84 190E 2.3 8v 5spd, Sebring/AMG header, custom exhaust, DTM can
Flex-a-lite Electric Fan instead of Clutch Fan, 230 BHP M102.961 AMG
BBS body kit, AMG duktail , Hella lights around.
E320 brakes, Troutman drilled rotors, C230 EVO 17" Rims (225/45/17), Billie Sports (plus some of MRP's toys) and Sachs Performance Springs
Sony MD with Rockford HPC 2204 4" in frt, Sony Xplod 4 way 6X9" in rear
newly added to the stable 83 Weiß 2.3, 85 Astral 500SEL

cheaper to just shoe horn in a MB V6 or V8 instead of a Mosselman Turbo kit to create the ultimate Rice Eater out of a Kraut Can

Thanks Cdn. I've been working on my 2.3 4 and the 2.6 seems really cramped for space.

That's a bit of understatement.

I think I will add another Mercedes to my collection at that point and ask you guys for advise on lots of fancy tools to do the job.
