Yes, I used proper tools. I was able to get a socket on the nut side and held the Phillips head bolt with a screw driver. I tested the Nylock nuts on the bolts that came with the motor and they threaded on fine. Even so, the only thing I can think of is that the nut stripped the bolt just enough that I cannot do final torque nor remove it. But as I said, the motor is secure and is operating good. I just want to have a plan and tools needed for taking the bolt/nut off should the motor go bad. Lessons learned though, when the passenger side goes out, I will get a bolt/nut/washer setup from the hardware store instead of using what is provided in the new motor (even the nuts they provided had the same issue).
