Is this the proper way to install front motor mounts on a 580K phase 3?

Is this the proper way to install this front motor mount? Also, if this is the way, I'm assuming this is the correct orientation of the mount?

Yep - http://www.colemanequip.com/Case-58...Engine-4l/ENGINE-MOUNTING-0qFo/?#partdiagrams

Some silicone spray on those things before trying to install them helps a bit as well.

Thank you very much.

Do you have the service manual ? Here is a screen shot out of it.

I do have the large binder type service manual. Thank you. Just wondering though, Why crankshaft alignment is an issue?

 

[Tinkerer]

Non-alignment will cause the pump shaft to wobble. If there are no bushing / dowel pins on both sides of the mounting bracket the mis-alignment could be quite severe.

So, does one mount go on the bottom and the other on top? Or do both of them go together in between the chassis and base?

Welcome to HEF @pepesm32
The mounts you have pictured are for a 580L or 580M not 580SK as per thread title.
However, the tall part with steel spacer, goes in under the carrier, the donut ring is fitted above the carrier.

Thank you. I am installing on a 580 super L.

I don't know anything about this machine but thought I would add a side note for anyone that is interested.

McMaster Carr has mounts like this. If you have dimensions they might save you some coin. I recently bought and used some on my NH.

Kinda late now, but you might want to plug those hydraulic lines before you fill them with dirt.
