[doc] Rear crossbrace removal



Hi all...hope everyone have had a nice summer :)

My restoration moves slowly forward...

I encountered one more problem -

The bolt on the LH side holding down the rear crossbrace in the
engine compartment moves around freely. I can't manage to loosen it,
it just spins around. The one on the RH side however was easy to get
out.

The reason I'm trying to remove it is because I want to refinish the
crossbrace, but how do I go about loosen the LH bolt now???

I *believe* the bolt is fastened into a welded nut from the inside of
the frame crossmember, and the welded nut has probably loosened when
I tried to get the bolt out. The hole below in the frame crossmember
is too small (and too far down) to get into and get at the nut from
below.

Suggestions before I order some dynamite? ;)

Cheers,
Stian
