Make sure you check those motor mounts too...I paid $69.71 each, from the dealer.

IMHO it could have easier if I had the correct sockets. I could not get a socket with a universal up in there correctly and almost stripped a head off a bolt. That is when I stopped and took it to a shop I trust. I do believe we had another thread going on this subject...let me look for it.

I do know you need some good six point impact universal sockets.





These are the type of sockets you want. The other knuckle joint type will not fit. I may get corrected but that was my experience.

BTW Mandy, I am using an iPad and I always have to go to advanced to post a picture. If I try to access the insert picture from the basic message entry area, my browser closes. I do not know if it my iPad or the website server. Will you report it? Tks

Bgw70, it is the server. I use photobucket to upload pics and just copy the links when I post. I know it takes an extra step but it is worth it. And uploading is a breeze.

Thanks, what sizes will be needed for the universal sockets, do you remember? I need to go to HF to check these out.

And it is Father's day, I hope to get some FAT HF gift card!

BTW happy Father's day to the dads!

You are so in luck Mandy, I replaced the bolt I messed up but purchased two at the time, which means I have a spare and was just able to confirm it is a 14mm.
