you can see here that the bolt on the left side of the differential broke off, but that's just one part of it

take of the tires and caliper and hang it somewhere then take the bolt out of the damper

take out the bolts off the differential, it's a pain in the ass, easy way I found it was just put it in gear and crank it for a second to rotate it around

didn't take a picture of it, but then you just find the e-brake cable above the driveshaft and disconnect that then you're ready to remove your subframe

There are no 9/16" bolts on the car anywhere, save the ones cletus put on.

thats just what i was about to say.

9/16 would SEEM to fit well over those 14mm bolts but the 9/16 is just a little bit bigger. big enough to strip those bolts...

use the right tools and save your self possible major headaches later on!

True. I love mine, but I can't wait until we all switch over to the new cammies.

And like everybody else, what did you do to tear your subframe up like that.
