Default how the heck to i fix this? pictures inside.

bought a mount from jdmshit.com hpc auto to manual conversion transmission passenger side mount. here's some pictures below: i cannot bolt on 1 (red circle) of the nuts because there isn't enough clearance. any suggestions. that's a 92-95 ex/si transmission by the way.

update: jdmshit told me to use a set of visegrips to pull out that bolt and put in a longer 1?

that's what i'm saying... he said use "visegrips" i don't want to alter the transmission in anyway though. if i end up jacking up the thread on the screw by pulling it out, what then...

Take two 17mm nuts and thread them together and then just turn it out.

good idea...

now how would i actually put in another bolt. they all have heads on them so it wouldn't even fit. i'm pretty sure that thing is welded inside, not hung on by a nut. i need some more input upon the transmission before i start tearing **** apart.

no the trans case is threaded, nothing holds that bolt in except for threads, take that one out and find a longer one and tighten it up.

some trans mounts come with a bolt there already. You are gonna discard the bolt thats in there now and get a regular bolt thats as long as you need and thread it in the hole.

i can get it out now... but i'm lost again... won't the head of the bolt be larger than that of the actual threads causing it not to fit?

I believe those bolts are 17's might be a 19 not sure, just go into your box of spare nuts and bolts and find one that works.

yes sir... it all makes sense now.. i always do things in reverse that's why. that never crossed my mind until i actually thought about it. well, i hope this post helps out lots of folks because that is the only way this mount works.

An aftermarket company who makes these conversion kits actually told you to lock some vise grips on the bolt and yank it out?
