how hard is it to change the body mounts on my 64 olds cutlass
can it be done on a lift
i have the new ones to install
with new bolts

The problem isn't replacement of the mounts, it's the collateral damage that happens when you spin one of the cage nuts and have to cut a hole in the floor pan to get to it.

Yup.....Lube, let soak, pray, apply impact wrench. If you are lucky the impact shocks them loose. Did I mention pray

I took all my bolts loose and jack up one side replaced all the mounts and put bolts back in loose. Jack up the other side and replaced all the mounts. Made sure all was straight and went around and tighten all. You know there are 7 per side. All have bolts. Also plus two on the rad support. All my bolt came out perfect.

Can you take oil pan off 64 olds cutlass without pulling motor

Man this is an old thread.
Yes you can. You have to jack up the engine so high, drop the pan to clear the flywheel. Be careful of the fan shroud and the distributor.
