Motor Mount (Passenger Side) Question

I was wondering if you have to remove the bracket that surrounds the mount (see pic) because I cannot get the two 18mm bolts off the bracket. I'm using a standard 18mm wrench. Because a socket and ratchet won't fit in there. Any help or suggestions PLEASE would be greatly appreciated!
:banghead:

Thanks
Nick

Are you talking about the nuts on the body/inner fender that holds down the mount ?
Your pic doesnt even show them....

If so you will need an extension for a ratchet to get them.

I thought thier was a procedure with pics around here somewhere for this.....
I'll see if I can locate that

Yeah you will see the bolts I gotta soaked in PB Blaster so its noticeable.

OK a 96'!! :banghead:

I was thinking it was newr, they have the bolts straight down, where a ratchet would get them with an extension.

This models on the side and a PITA to get access too.

Ok, using a wrench find a long pipe big enough to fit over the wrench to get more leverage. I would suggest using a boxed end wrench to avoid rounding it off.
That'll realy sucks!!

Or get a 1/2" drive breaker bar, and socket.
They are tight!

Hope that helps.

Here is a pic of the 99+ grand ams motor mount to body nut (http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c242/xeroinfinity/auto%20odds-ends/99MMtobody2.jpg).

Okay so you don't have to remove the bolts that are shown in the picture. LOL!There welded to the bracket itself.

Actually! They are located inside the wheel well. 13 MM Bolts! SO EASY!

Thanks all for the help!
