seanl82 23 Posted April 30, 2014 I just stood on one end at a time with my toes, and managed to get a couple of turns on with my fingers. Once both sides are done like that you'll have no bother mate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted April 30, 2014 The way i read that is the engine still in ? Or out Just re-read that and think you're right Matt. Best bet would be to Jack it a little as you say mate. Just taking up a little bit of the bushes tension will give you enough like I said earlier. :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted April 30, 2014 I remember mine being the same. Think I did Jack under neath it enough to get the bolts to bite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
