	Hi all As some may know I broke my shoulder last year coming off my motorbike,well today I attempted to change the engine mounts on my mx-5. Well I failed,I can't seem to muster enough strength to undo the bolts. I'm gutted my car was up on the ramps,ready to go but my shoulder just wouldn't allow me to do it. Anyone fancy hot bacon and sausage butties with copious amounts of tea/coffee in exchange for assisting me change my mounts? I'm located in Bury North Manchester and I have tools,ramps,compressor,etc etc just no strength at the moment. Cheers.

I'm going to buy a new pair of ramps which will hopefully give me a bit more room under the car so fingers crossed I can sort the mounts myself.
