rear transmission mounts or engine mounts

The torque strut, which is mounted underneath on the passenger side is what controls the front to back movement of the engine. The engine will shift slightly with a healthy torque strut, but shouldn't move more that an inch or so. The torqu strut is easily changed, but you will want the front wheels off the ground as you will have to manipulate the motor somewhat to get the bolts started.

You have to remove the torque strut, at top and
your front/radiator side and either pry the engine
to the front of car or buy the tool that goes into the
strut mount for that purpose. It draws the engine away
from firewall

YOU HAVE 3 MOUNTS. YOU HAVE PASSENGER SIDE ENGINE MOUNT. YOU HAVE DRIVER SIDE ENGINE MOUNT AND THE LOWER TORQUE STRUT MOUNT TO TRANSAXLE.
