    Default Transmission Mount Problem

    OK guys need some help.... please with any tricks... I am trying to replace the transmission mounts but the bolts are so freakin tight I can't budge them, I have used wd-40 and an 18" breaker bar. Help me, next step is going to a shop.

    did you try heating them up and smacking them with a hammer to crack them loose?

    Make sure there is no other factor.. I can't imagine a bolt so hard to get out. Add a cheater pipe over the breaker bar to see if you can persuade it to loosen up.
