OK - solved the issue on the broken cage by just cutting it out and cutting the bolt off. Jacked the car up and replaced the passenger side today. Only thing I am not sure about is when I went to let the car back down on the mounts, #3 hit long before the others did. I replaced all the shims in the same location just as they came out. All the other mounts (#1, 2 & 4 Pass side) only had one shim. #3 had 5 shims on it. Does this seem right and should I remove one or two to get it to hit all the mounts the same?
On the driver side, I tried to jack it up but could not go high enough to get #2 & #3 out from under the body. I have not taken anything else loose so I might be missing something on this side that does not let it go up further (steering possibly). Anything that I should take loose?
Also on the driver side, the shims are the same situation as the passenger. There are quite a few more at #3 than at the other locations.
