help! pass side motor mount



Get a 'mini-sledge', slightly tighten the bolt back to where it was, pound on the bead of the bolt
(the one that turns, not the welded-on nut). The idea is that the sleeve is against the nut-backed
part of the frame mount bracket. You are trying to pound it and agitate it to break it free. If all
else fails throw an impact on the sucker and let it spin. It will eventually push hard enough on the
nut to force the sleeve to stay put as the bolt backs out.
