Classic VW BuGs How to Replace Front Trans Tranny Mount Vintage Beetle

To many this seems like a tough job to do.  But I made this video for the guy who is in his garage, on the floor, looking to get a little dirty and have the job done within an hour or so.

Over the years these mounts get cruddy and corroded and they should be replaced if you see one in bad shape. The one we change on this ’67 beetle was old and broken from its base. This caused chattering when shifting, so it needed to come out. Ideally these are put in when the motor and tranny are out, or when you are doing a body off restoration and you have easy access to change it.

We still needed to remove the motor, HERE IS THE VIDEO ON HOW TO DO THAT.

But here is how to do the rest of the JOB taking the front Transmission mount out!
