When i got my truck fixed after an accident the shop told me the motor mounts are broken and i need to replace them. I've looked a few time and cant see the mounts. Could someone take a picture for me? and how easy are they to replace?

Depending on the amount of impact from the collision, It should be covered as part of the damage repairs. It is very possible the collision caused them to break.
