HI All, we are taking apart a 2013 Ford Mustang GT. As we dismantle the engine bay to be able to lift the engine, we have found a stubborn bolt on the steering. Any ideas about removing it?
Thanks

Needs to be soaked in penetrating oil and possibly get a hand held torch to heat it up.

That nut might be welded on. If I remember correctly you have to do undo that bolt from the top. But I have an '07.

That is correct. It does come out from the top. However with the condition it is suggested to spray it good or use heat to help.

That does not need to come out for pulling the engine. With engine out, a 1/2 inch impact will take that bolt right out. From the top, as it has been pointed out.
