always attatch the rear mount first , then the passanger side and the driver side will fall right into place

ok so to attach the rear first, i'd have to go almost level? b/c i was told a 30-45 degree angle. if anyone could help detail thsi process for me i'd be very appreciative, i need it in tomorrow, no if ands or buts about it.

ITS IN :biggrin: all we did was take the side tranny mount off and it gave alot of space for us... of course i think i lost a motor mount bolt, i had three that were basically the same just slightly difference lengths and one that was about 1/2 inch longer than the rest, didn't know which it coulda gone for so we just got some locking washers and spaced it out... but its in, just gotta wire it up and listen to the smooth purr of my RActive exhaust :)
