The lower mount nuts aren't even on yet.

I scribed the original position of the crossmember, but throughout all the fiddling on each side, it's a bit off. I wasn't really concerned because it's going in for a alignment directly after this job anyways. I originally was going to drop the crossmember altogether when I did this years ago on another car, but the power steering line right behind this mount is frozen tight and apparently stripped from the PO. great!

It was a profanity-filled struggle to get the bolts back in properly so I'm looking to avoid having to take them too far off again at all costs. Haven't played with raising up the engine yet since I set the wood/jack to keep it level beforehand. Will have to try that tomorrow when there's daylight again. Yeah, went with the genuine Porsche mounts...they were a little expensive to say the least!!
