Anybody know what to do here, i have the drivers side mount in all nuts on about two threads, I have the passenger side bolted into the bracket with the bracket bolted to the engine loosely, Now i just cant get that bloody side to line up. Ideas, anyone?

yep...scissor jack from the boot used between the strut tower and the engine to move it into the correct position, and then lower.

What I do is, once the drivers side in. Put jack under engine and jack up until you get access to the bracket mount bolts. Unbolt engine bracket with the mount on, place mount in kframe with a couple of threads. Then lower or raise the jack to line up bracket using screwdriver in one of the bolt holes.
Done a few like this so far.

Cheers, Daza.
