My motormount experience



Well all this recent talk of motor mounts inspired me to intall one last night on the left side of my 88 Quad. I had purchased them some time ago but never got around to it even though at least the one on the left was shot.
Installation was slick and only took about an hour including time it took to clean off some lower parts of my engine while I had the chance. However when I tried to put the car in reverse it will not go. I can barely get it in 5th gear now and when driving it pops out. It feels like it's catching on something. I never had any problems with the trany.

I was wondering if anybody has ideas as to what I tore up. I did have to jack the side of the engine a good bit to get the new bigger mount in. Did I bend some shift linkage? How will I have to go about straighting this mess out? I looked at my shop manual last night but per usual it was no help here.

Thanks
