Motor Mount Question
I have an 89 Iroc. I tried to search this question, but the search is down.
Do your motor mounts have a Bolt and nut fastener? (mine do) If so, do you need to pull the lower control arm off to gain access?
I ordered some ARP mount bolts and they are just bolts. I am thinking I have the wrong part.
I am gonna be pissed if I have to take the lower control arms off again, since I did them when I did the busings and the eibach springs! Crap!
Thanks for any info,
Tucker

My engine bay is empty. I put the impact wrench on the motor mount bolts to replace them and realized that they have nuts buried under the crossmember.
I got under and saw ZERO clearance for 2 of the nuts.
I was thinking that someone had replaced the mounts and used the nut/bolt setup because the kit I ordered from ARP looked like they juat torque into the crossmember.

you can get to the bolts buy using using a 15mm universal socket. Some people have been able to bend a 15mm wrench to get the nuts.
It requires alot of time and luck. Took me about 5 hours.
