[TR] Engine Mounts

[George Haynes]

Since the engine in my 1965 TR4A is out being rebuilt, it seemed like a good time to replace the front engine mounts.  Access to the mounting nuts is all but impossible.  They bolt to the frame nearly obscured by front suspension. It's a beautiful RATCO frame I installed ten years ago.  Might be different than a stock frame in this area.
Sockets are impossible.  Dismantling the front suspension would take a lot of time and energy, and may not help.It might be possible to access these (Nyloc) nuts with a seriously modified end wrench, probably with busted knuckles and lots of cursing involved.  

Modifying the RATCO frame would be a sacrilege! Not gonna happen!
Has anyone dealt with this?  Any suggestions?  Are you reading this, Tony?I might have to retain the old motor mounts.TIA.
