[doc] Rear crossbrace removal

["Stian Birkeland" <delorean@xxxxxxxxx>]

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
