Hi all. Has anyone had trouble with the bolts not coming out when removing the front sub-frame. I am trying to change the cat. on my 2003 x-type. I have printed off the how to PDF for this. The rear mount retaining bolt on the passenger side will not come out. All it does is turn. I have looked inside the frame and can see the nut part turning with the bolt. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks RCSSNOWMAN

 

Have a look at this from the British x type forum. It will show you how to get around it.

Suspension overhaul nightmare

Or if you do not want to do it that way here is another possibility.

I can send you the wrench Dimensions if you want to make your own Very simple to do.

 

Thanks for the tip. It did help. All is good.
