Engine guards install help
#11
One of the rear engine mounts is rubber. This will allow the engine to drop some when you release the front bolts even if the remaining bolts are tight.
dlhmatt has the right idea with supporting the engine with a jack and a piece of wood. DO NOT USE THE OIL FILTER AS A JACKING POINT.
Adjust the jack until the bolt can be pulled out. Even with a jack you may have to "tap" the bolts a bit, which is ok in the grand scheme of things.
