Cant remove torque mounts on ej6
I know im stupid for having to ask this but ive been trying for an hour and cant get them off.
The driver side is just hanging there, the bolts are loose but wont come out. I feel like there is a nut at the end keeping them from falling out but i cant find where it is.
On the passenger side the bolt closest to firewall came out no problems, but the other one just wont come out, i can slide it up and down but it just wont fall out. I also took the trans bracket/mount off hoping that would help but it didnt.
If someone knows what im doing wrong it would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I finally found someone with same problem, the welded nut broke so now its just spinning. Trying to decide best way to approach this now.

I have the same issue, so I decided to have the mounts tack welded where they sit. at first i was going to just jb weld them, one is torn so I am going to make a solid mount outa of it. Otherwise you need to cut the bolt but then you would have to fill the bolt hole with weld and then drill and tap new threads into it.

Edit: I read on another thread a guy cut a whole in the frame and welded the nut back on but i have no knowledge in welding. Is there a way to access the nut and just hold it with vicegrips?
