Transmission mount bolts completely stuck.

[Ajax]

Hi guys. I am trying to remove my transmission mount bolts with no success. I have tried heat, WD-40, and the bolts didnt even move.

Any advice?

What were you using 3/8 You are going to need a 1/2 and a long breaker bar they been on there a while and will take some force use a 6 point socket

I was using a 1/2 breaker bar but there is no way to support it. My big mistake was trying to loosen it while off the car, so I couln't really put much force on it. And since the thing is made of aluminum, I didn't want to clamp it too hard.

Anyways, I'll try again when it's on the car.

Thanks.

Have a vice or impact gun

I have a vice, no impact gun, but the shape of the mount is strange, and the aluminum part gets all scratched if you try to mount it in the vice. It's not worth it. Better to have in in the car.

Yep that probaly best loosen bolts before you remove parts but on a vise marking up things thin pieces of wood rags folded up or tubes or plastic will help from marking up things also aluminum angle iron also
