Whats the story on the b series rear mount? *removed* pics 56k go take a shit
 
I'm trying to get out the stock mount on the subframe to replace it with my new b series mount.. I got the 2 easy bolts to get out.. had to use a damn near 2' extension and an air impact wrench.. wondering how in the hell i'm gonna get the bolt in the back out though.. any ideas? thinking about getting a 1/2" drive universal swivel socket.. other than that i'm clueless..

if you cant pull a motor what makes you think you can put another one back
I say you stick to Connect Four and MAYBE Jenga :1

Hahaha...nice.
Ever think about maybe dropping the rear crossmember a hair to give you more room to get in there? Oh, and usually the rear mount is done while the motor is OUT of the car (although I have managed to replace them with a b-series still in there, but I'm not telling how ;) )

Let's just say with the engine in it takes at least 3x the amount of time to do. :P

Oh, and your goodies will be out in the a.m. ;)

undo the pinch bolt on the steering column, take out the 4 bolts on the rear crossmember, get a 3/8 drive socket set with a flexi joint and a couple of good extensions. Pry the crossmember down with a bar as far as you can then its easier to get to, best with the engine out but not too difficult with it in.
