Today I noticed that I had a busted motor mount on the exhaust side on my SRX. I have no idea how long this has been broken. Completely cracked in half. Is it necessary to pull the motor to replace this mount? Also, not knowing how long I have been running like this, what potential issues should I look for? Drive shaft bearings? Gears?
 
i don't think you'll have to pull the motor to change the mount on the exhaust side of the motor, but you will need to loosen up other mounts to get it out and another back in. remember to check center to center and offset after you put the new one in. can't imagine a broken motor mount will hurt any bearings in the sled, it just allowed to motor to flop around and most likely knock you're alignment out. if it was a back mount you would be bumming they suck to change.
 
i had this happen also.. i pulled the pipes out and loosened the other one up a bit and had enough room to change it.. no idea why it broke, it was the actual bracket that broke on mine.. gl
