I have an engine mount gone. But wann replace it myself if i can. Unfortunatly i dont have axel stands or 2 jacks. My question is will turning the wheels in full lock give me enough access to get to the mount to unbolt it so i can use the jack to lift the gearbox/engine off of it. Oh yeah its the front mount under the gear box on a 1.6 megane coupe

wheel off jack it up. remove ach liners.

undo both nuts on mount.

use breaker bar or other lever to lift the box box up against the subframe remove mount slip in new one and let the lever lower it down.

tighten nuts, re-fit arch liners and wheel, lower car

drive away
