Sounds like you’re making progress which is great. When I was looking for engine and transmission mounts, I had to pass on several candidates because I just couldn’t get them off safely – or at all. Junk yards do involve a bit of careful creativity at times.

I’ve always had good luck coming up with new grade 8 hardware. We have local hardware stores that carry this quality of bolts, and when I lived in a different state we had a specialty fastener company available.
