do you have to raise the motor up at all off the mounts to swap the mounts out or will they just come out with a little work?

Yeah all I did was jack the motor up enough to get the stress of the old mount.. take off all the bolts..replace with new mount and use some wood to shift the motor back into place bolt everything up and tighten.. and BOOM your done..

then check them after a couple day to make sure everything is nice and tight still.

maybe grab a buddy to help shift the motor back a little when your trying to bold the new mount in.

TTR gets stuff out to you super fast too, ordered a lower and some strut bars, called me the next day to say the color of the bars I wanted was discontinued and worked it out with me. Super polite and responsive, got everything in the mail a few days later. Great company to work with.
