Trying to take the 3 bolts out that hold the motor mount clam shell deal ontop of the motor mounts. However everytime I try it they only spin in their hole instead of coming out. Can somebody tell me how to do this right?

If I remember correctly there are nuts on inside of the crossmember, I forgot how I got them out but I do remember it was a PITA, I'm sure someone on the bord has a trick to make it eieaser, which will help me when I do my rebuild.

This is gonna sound like a lot all at once, but it will work, and wont take hardly any time at all. Supplies: 15mm swivel socket (or swivel with shallow 15mm on it), about 16 inches of extensions, and possibly a 15mm boxed wrench. Take both front wheels off, and look through the springs with a droplight, and you will see the nuts on the backside. The two top ones can easily be gotten with a swivel socket and the extensions. However, if you are using a swivel with a socket on it (as opposed to a swivel socket) the bottom ones will need the wrench. What i did was put the wrench in a vise, and heat it with a torch. Then I bent it so that when inserted from below, it fit on the nut perfectly. Have a second person hit the top bolts with an imact, and it will be done in less than an hour, no BS. Its not hard, if you do it this way.
