    replace motor mount

    ok need to replace the front ( torque strut) motor mount i no its two bolts basically but the bottom is very hard to take off b/c its so low, and very little room to get leverage, whats the best way to get the bolt off?

    use a long wobble extension, or a flex socket? ive been able to get it out with a regular ratchet when i needed to, but usually i have the radiator pulled out.

          It's even easier with a Impact Gun with the Aux Fan Removed.

            Put a thich pipe or ratchet or something along the crossmember. It needs reach just high enough to touch the head of the ratchet thats trying to take the bolt off so that it doesn't flex.
