I have read on here all about these bolts, well my problem is, they are just spinning. I cant get them off or snap them because the weld broke loose on the inside, so the whole bolt is spinning.
I dont have air tools and I tried to hit it with a 4# hammer/sledge and a bar, but nothing.
Could i get in there with a dremel cut off wheel, since there is no space for a grinder or sawz all?
Thanks

Sounds like you have that "worst case scenario" that calls for pulling up carpet to get to the nut from through the floor board. or if you can there is a small space on the inboard side of the mount that I was able to put a wrench when I replaced mine. it might help to get yours loose. Hope this helps.
