Default Doing poly motor mount right now, need help!!! ASAP!



How do I jack the motor to the left?!?!?

The clamshell is tq'd to the block, and the pedistal is on the k-member ad tq'd. If we pry up on the car or use a jack the bolt goes up, not sideways, we are kinda stumped here. Any ideas???
thanks
-Steve

Place a screwdriver in one side and pry try to start the bolt from the other side and then use and impact or air ratchet to screw all the way in it worked for me.

We got it!

We put the crow bar by the headers, put it up in between the clamshell and the perch, yanked it over hard, used a hammer to put the bolt thru, what a bitch.
