Ford 7L1Z-6068-BF Engine Support Insulator Assembly

You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 7L1Z-6068-BF fits your vehicle.

Check for relative movement between the mount plates and the engine or frame by using a large screwdriver or pry bar to attempt to move the mounts. If movement is noted, lower the engine and tighten the mount fasteners.

Raise the transmission slightly with a jack, then remove the bolts attaching the mount to the transmission. Place a transmission jack or floor jack under the transmission and raise it just enough to allow you to slip the old mount out from between the transmission and the crossmember. Remove the mount bolts and then remove the mount (note that the crossmember is removed for clarity, but crossmember removal is not necessary).

Rubber preservative should be applied to the mounts to slow deterioration.

Turn off the air suspension system. The switch is located in the area of the right kick panel.

Unbolt the mount from the engine block and remove it from the vehicle. If the vehicle is equipped with self-locking nuts and bolts, replace them with new ones whenever they are disassembled. Prior to assembly, remove hardened residual adhesive from the engine block holes with an appropriate-size bottoming tap.

Attach an engine support fixture to the engine lifting eyes adjacent to the exhaust manifolds. Note that many equipment rental yards rent the engine support fixture.
