ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

            just so you know. theres a nut on one side and the bolt head on the other. you need to take off the nut.

                The Nut? When I did mine...I have to take the bolt off...Nut is welded on to the subframe. The bolt is on the left side....

                  yeah, make sure you're on the left side of the mount (when facing the engine)

                    i just replaced my front moter mount yesterday and it was such a bitch to get that bottom bolt, i used an impacked and a swivel tho and it finally worked.

                      liberal amounts of PB Blaster might help too! Let it soak in for a few hours.

                            In the worst case, drop the front crossmember and get it off that way. The mount will come off with it, giving you more room to work.

                            That mount is just a torque mount. It doesn't actually hold anything up.
