    If you don't have access to any power tools... use a long breaker bar.

      long ratchet and socket. pretty easy to get off but you may be twisting on the wrong side cause one side is welded to the mount. just get some torque on there and heave ho!

        I had this problem before, if tools are limited its best to use a breaker bar. The bottom bolt is tricky so use the rachet with extenions, get long pipe that will fit over the rachet and it will do it.

          Yeah, a long breaker bar is my best friend. Just be careful and don't smack yourself in the head with it, I did this a few times and it hurts.

            If you dont have a long breaker bar, put a box end wrench on the end of your rachet to get some extra torque...

              dont do what i did... what looks like a nut on the right hand side (when looking at the mount in the bay) is actually WELDED to the frame, the bolt you want is on the left hand side (for the lower one)

                yeah the top nut/bolt is normal, the left side is a nut, and the right side should be a bolt with a little tab on it. But on the bottom is where it's tricky, ONLY the LEFT side nut unscrews, not the right side. The right side is welded on to the bracket so whatever you do its not gonna move. so be sure to just unscrew the left side of the torque mount. And what i used to get it off was this Gear Wrench i bought at Sears. Its really slim and long, so that helped get into that tight area. I believe its a 17mm size but not positive. The cool thing is they've got 4 wrenches in one on that, one side has 18/19mm and the other end has 16/17mm. Kinda like a ratcheting boxed end wrench. VERY handy IMO. I think a set of two w/ 4 wrenches on each, 8/10 12/13 on one and 16/17 18/19 on the other was 25 bucks.
