What is this and can I take it off to help get some room to remove motor mount? I assume the bolt above it holds it in place?

Why are you removing the motor mount bracket off the block? You can remove just the motor mounts with the right tools. For that 17mm nut that bolts the motor mount to the motor mount bracket, a 120 click point 3/8" ratchet is super helpful and basically makes it possible to get out.

Ah, I see. If those are poly bushings in those mounts, you're going to get crazy vibrations and noise into your cab. I have Trail Gear poly mounts for the the 22RE engine in my 85 4runner and it's louder than shit and sends engine vibrations into the frame rails. You might quickly learn this was a big mistake unless you plan on cranking your stereo everywhere you go.

No radio, minimal interior and I play in the desert with my rig, whoops and occasional jumping. It’s not a daily driver so not terrible worried about noise or vibration but I’m sure it will be more noticeable.
@ I watched your video and ended up ordering the 120 click gear wrench ratchet you used and I’m going to attempt to change the driver side out this coming week starting with removing the 17mm nut and frame side mount.

You'll love the ratchet. I own them in all sizes. Total game changer.

Well something isn’t right... driver side doesn’t line up even close at the perch. Not sure what’s bent or tweaked but next thing to try to do is loosen passenger side and put the driver side on first
