Never heard of that issue before. I always thought it was a threaded lug on the bodywork rather than a captive nut.

Ah no pics yet just started to take it out and the bolt is just spinning and down enough for the washer to be loose

Which bolt?
The ones under the floor pan or the ones on the chassis legs? Yes has happened before... Wishes for more power...

It's the bugger buy the gearbox tunnel passenger side will prob just chop the head of the bolt of and then sort when subframe out the way

That would be my port of call. Are you referring to the one on the chassis leg? Or one by the exhaust tunnel?

The ones on the chassis legs can be unbolted again...
IE its a retaining nut inside a cup which is bolted to the leg with two smaller bolts. Ive had these seize before...had to chop head off and get new 'cup' Wishes for more power...

Slight hijack.
Can anyone tell me what size bolt 4 is. Part no 350925. Presume it means m12 x 1.75, just need to know the length.
Id guess 70mm
