What were they thinking?

My daughter and I just replaced the drivers side engine mount on her 1996 318ci Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Who in their right mind decided to put a nut on the inside of the mount. I'm not referring to the two welded on nuts on the mount but the rear one with a loose nut and bolt.

With all the front wheel drive linkages etc in the way we had to become contortionists to get to it and to get the nut back on we had to tape the nut to a wrench and blindly attempt to get it started.

ARRRRRRGH!

Also why the 2 inches of additional threads on the through bolt with a locking nut so you have to wrench it the entire 2 inches 1/16 turn at a time.

OK I'm done venting! or is it whining?

have a great weekend!

Reminds me of the pinch bolts that hold out steering wheel sleeves and signal light pieces together. One of the most dumbassed things I

My son's Cadillac had a front parking light that went out. The light is incorporated into the front (Plastic) bumper. I couldn't figure out how to get to it so he took it to the dealer. They charged $300 for labor and $1.99 for the bulb!!!!!!!!!!!! If that isn't a rip of I don't know what is!!!:mad::mob::icon_fU::soapbox::BangHead:

I`ve never owned or wanted a cadilac, but my friends that own them all ay the same thing, one is a full fledged, owns his own shop mech., and cant afford to replace the struts on his.
