Step 5: ONE AT A TIME, remove and replace the
engine mount studs with the longer studs provided.
Replacing the studs one at a time will allow the other
stud to maintain alignment of the engine mount. The
OEM studs can be removed with the proper external
torx socket or by carefully using a 6-point 8mm socket.
When installing the new studs DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN. They should only be finger tight until
they stop threading in easily with approximately 7/8” of
stud exposed above the engine mount. WARNING:
Over tightening the studs could damage the threads of
the engine mount.
Step 6: Install the small spacer plate over the studs so
that the curved edge faces the fender and the wide,
pointed end is toward the front of the car.
Step 7: Install the ETD engine-mounting bracket over
the studs. Use the original nuts install on new studs
and tighten to 110lb-ft.
Step 8: Remove the temporary engine support from
under the vehicle and replace the splashguard.
Step 9: Mazdaspeed3 ONLY: Reinstall nut from rear of
engine that was holding the A/C line and tighten.
Step 10: Remove the 3 bolts from the top of the
passenger side strut tower.
Step 11: Install the strut tower ETD bracket using the
original bolts and tighten.
Step 12: Install Stiffy™ onto the Chassis Mount Bracket
and Engine Mount Bracket using the supplied
hardware. Begin on the Chassis bracket. Use one of
the M10 bolts to fasten the Stiffy™ to the chassis
bracket. You may need to loosen the jam nut with an
open-end wrench (17mm) and adjustable wrench to
increase the assembly length depending upon vehicle.
The supplied M10 (17mm HEX) bolt should go through
the engine side of the bracket, and the Stiffy ™ should
mount on the outside of the bracket. The supplied
rubber o-ring is placed between the Stiffy™ rod end and
the supplied washer (smaller washers), which mounts
against the bracket. The Stiffy™ nuts (15mm HEX) are
black in color. The Stiffy ™ adjustment dials should be
facing toward the Chassis Mounting Bracket. Note:
Install bolts with bolt head on the rod end side of the
assembly and the locking nut (black in color) on the
bracket side of the assembly. Refer to illustration 3 for
proper assembly of the mounting hardware.
