So I just got poly upper mounts and was wonder what is the best way to get the old square ones out? Put in vice grip spray wd40 in it and hit w a bfh?
 


just did this last night. remove the dog bone. then with a sharp ass razor knife look from the sides of the old mount, see the rubber bar on both sides of the center metal tube? cut it through on both sides, top bottom, left and right.

then take the bolt put it through a box wrench then through the old mount, nut the other side, then rip that pos out. once the middle is cut and ripped out, use a screw driver to pry the center rib of the old mount out of its groove and tear it out as well.

the new poly mounts slide right in.

i did it like this in like 15 minutes start to finish last night.
 
dont burn em out, thats a f ing mess.

take a sharp knife cut the middle part out with the metal bolt sleeve out, then pry the rest out, i had both out and new installed in 15 minutes with a utility knife and a old blade lol
 


You sir are correct. I used a razor and a chisel came out in like 10 minutes for both. Thanks guys! Now it is all red, pretty and sh*t.
 
good luck. but you would need to pry them out a bit, and spray lube the whole damn rubber part, then try to rip them out with out them tearing.
