You can Select Your Vehicle to check if 22116779970 fits your vehicle.

Two engine mounts are used, one on either side of the engine. If improved access is required, raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Check the mount rubber for any cracks, hardening, or separation from the metal; replace the engine mounts if any damage or deterioration is evident. Ensure that all mount bolts and nuts are securely tightened. Using a large screwdriver or a crowbar, check for wear in the mounts by carefully prying against them to assess free play. If this is not possible, enlist the aid of an assistant to move the engine/transmission back-and-forth or side-to-side while observing the mounts. While some free play is expected, excessive wear should be obvious. If excessive free play is found, first check that the fasteners are correctly secured, then replace any worn components as necessary. To support the engine, use a hoist and lifting chain connected to the engine lifting brackets or position a jack and block of wood under the oil pan, ensuring the engine is adequately supported before proceeding. Remove the nuts securing the left and right-hand engine mount brackets to the mounts, unbolt the mount brackets from the engine block, and remove the mounts. Disconnect the engine ground straps from the mount. Remove the nuts securing the mounts to the body, then take out the mounts. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring that the metal protector plates are in position on the mounts and securely tightening all fasteners.
