Default Which bolt to remove to loosen the motor mount?

Do I remove the long bolt that runs parallel to the ground that goes through the metal bracket (that is bolted to the K-Member) and holds the mount itself in position with the metal bracket?

If you pull that bolt out it will allow you to separate the motor from the K-Member. Make sure you have the motor supported from either on top or the bottom.

Ok, that's the one I was trying to get out. My impact (500 ft-lbs) won't break that bolt loose.

you gotta get someone to hold the nut on the back with a wrench/rachet/breaker or whatever, while you use the impact on the front.....or vice versa
