Replacing rear beam mounts
#1
While the beam is off my gti6 I figured now would be a good time to fit some new mounts.

The square one is as simple as it gets to replace, however the front mount (with the two bolts) is causing me a bit of bother.

Basically, how do you get the bottom bolt out far enough to get the mount off? As it only comes out a couple of inches before it is obstructed by the trailing arm.

Am I missing a trick here, as far as I can see, the only way to get the bolt out far enough is to pull the arm out?
