Engine Mounts: Notes
NOTE:
The following procedure applies to 3.8L equipped vehicles only.
CAUTION:
When raising or supporting the engine for any reason, do not use a jack under the oil pan, crankshaft balancer, or any sheet metal. Due to small clearances between the oil pan and the oil pump screen, jacking against the oil pan may cause it to be bent against the pump screen, resulting in a damaged oil pickup unit. Jacking against the crankshaft balancer may also cause oil seal and/or crankshaft bearing damage. Always use Universal Support Fixture (J 28467-A) along with Engine Support Adapters (J 41044) when raising or supporting the engine.
