Rear Mount removal!

[JoshVK]

Ok so pulled the KLZE out of my parts car today and had to cut bolt to get rear mount out...
How is this supposed to be done?
on parts car lower mount had a bolt that was striped so i couldent just take out mount.. but im assuming thats how youd do it?
figured id check as my K8 is comming out tomorrow..
thanks in advance..

What I did;

Hooked up the engine lift. put some tentsion on. removed all mount p/s,d/s,front. removed the driverside rock sheild in the wheel well. You can see the mount bolts. (loosen the bolts from under the car first, as far out as you can get them, the nuts should come off. Get a socket with a long extention. had a buddy work the lift up and down while I played with the motor untill I could get the socket on the bolts. removed, screw the bolts out. It took me 45mins or so but I got it without cutting anything and removing my crossmember.

I bought new bolts after and put them in the opposite way they came out. So next time I could just remove the bolts under the car with no issue.

is there room though? I recently installed AWR mounts and I had to cut the bolt as well...

Should be no problem. you can put a wrech on the nut from the top of the engine bay looking down to the mount. and rachet the bolt out from the other side.

I got the old bolts out no problem. just had to lift the engine a bit to pass the control arm. Then when I installed I fed the bolt through the other way. no issue. should come out just as easy as it went in.
