harbor freight has an electric impact wrench for about $40 that works pretty decent.

The nut spins, most likely due to the upper 17mm square flange not being captured by the engine carrier .... did this back in '08 ...R&R of broken motor mount

Ya that's what was happening
Used electric impact gun and they came
Off.
Passenger side was toast I guess that's why the
Exhaust was a inch lower on that side.
Thanks.
