I don't want to pull all a that crap off just to change the engine bar *and* mounts. If you've done it that way before, please tell me about it. Thanks. I'd rather be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) my 914.

Would something like this be long enough to get on that nut from the side of motor? And short enough from the joint to the end of the socket?
