What is the easiest to get to and remove the passenger side motor mount bolt.
That is in the rear of the motor mount.

Ditto. In my case, neither the starter or the K sensor were in the way at all. I tend to use wimpy 3/8" tools, but a 1/2" driver and a cheater bar.. Just be sure to fully seat the 6-sided socket before putting any real torque to it. Oh, and I did pull the wheel off to get room for the extension and pivot.MartianBob said:I just did mine two weeks ago.
I got to that bolt from the bottom with a 13 mm socket and u-joint and extenstion. I did not remove the knock sensor.
A big time saver is to twist the loose mount around enough to remove the 2 10mm bolts on the bottom bracket and take it out in 2 pieces.. and do the opposite to reinstall. Also, take the mount halves out from between the compressor (unbolt it and tie it back if it helps) and the frame. You have to remove the intake tube and tie the coolant bottle out of the way also. This is how I did that side in under 2 hours.You only need to take off the knock sensor (1 1/8 socket) if you want to move the mount in/out through the bottom.
