I've searched and found some discussion on how frustrating it is, but never a good picture of someone's bracket in the press showing what they did to get these fetchin motor mounts pressed in and out. I spent some time up at school on our ancient press with very little success. I think that an "L" shaped piece of steel that you could bolt the motor mount bracket to so that the actual motor mount sleeve was in line with the direction of the press instead of being off by 30* would be fabulous... unfortunately I have no welding equipment, materials, or skills. So I'd like to see what you all have done.
Here is what I had in mind...
Passenger side motor mount;
BELOW: the green square is where the "|" part of the "L" shaped bracket would be and the blue line is the "_" part of the "L" and would be coming straight out at the camera. The Green, Yellow, and Red dots are the factory bracket holes I'd use to mount the factory bracket to the "L" bracket for pressing. Green = ok to use, Yellow = might work (if it doesn't interfere with pressing), Red = won't work.
the MSpaint sketch didn't work out so well so I might go make a cardboard template to better illustrate my point.
The reason (I think) the Red one won't work.
