LOL....the trick is getting it high enough. They are not hard at all to change, a couple of bolts are a PAIN, but nothing a novice can't handle. I did mine after I got my lift, so it was pretty easy, and it was an Arizona car, so no rust issues. Good Luck!

Easy enough. As Mike says, get the car high enough to crawl under it. Then you'll need to have a jack handy to raise the rear of the trans a little. Then it is simply a matter of removing the bolts, two holding the mount to the trans, and two holding the mount to the crossmember.
