    O.K. I'm stumped. The nuts on the mounts don't seem to want to loosen. Is the stud a bolt with no access? Do I break out the torch or sawzall? Help!!!
    Thanks all, -stick

    In the past I've figured out where the captured nuts are on the top side and took a die grinder and cut out an opening in the top of the floor. Then you can heat the nuts up and back out the bolts. If you used 1/64" wide cutoff wheels, you can weld the pieces you cut out back in. Make sure you use plenty of never seize or grease on the bolt threads when you re***emble, in case you ever want to get them off again. :cool:
