Let the engine ALL THE WAY DOWN. Jack it up a LITTLE bit, and try to tap the bolt out with a hammer. Trust us, it will come out.
Sounds like you have your hands full trying be be done by tomorrow, if you were closer I would just come over and start throwin wrenches

Re: Need Help Asap With Motor Jacking!!!
BTW, don't try to force the bolt out without some pressure taken off the bolt. Don't want to screw up the threads. Have you tried spraying a little WD-40 in there? Might help.
Re: Need Help Asap With Motor Jacking!!!
no - i can see, the mounts DO NOT MOVE AT ALL when i jack -- should the car be higher than ramps before jacking? The entire car moves right away, i NEVER see alignment change on holes AND the part of the bolt towards the back of the car IS ALWAYS smashed against the top ot the hole

No luck - seems like its bent? Holding too good to just be seized up - WD40d the hell outta it, im gonna take the hammering advice - THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR SUPPORT -- if all else fails, how bad is loosening K member? hOH yea, THE ONLY thing stopping this install from being completed 8 hours ago is the AIR hookup on the pass side header - had i known this, i would have gone without emissions
