Clutch Change with gearbox drop

[cptgreenvalley]

Hi Guys,

Last year I bought a Country and barely made it from seller due to a worn clutch.
Either way I was very happy with the purchase and finally this winter I´ve had time to work on it.

Have been following the Syncro gearbox removal guide made by Les posted by Chris S on this forum.

I´m up to lowering the subframe and have met some issues. I´m struggling with with one of the sub frame bolts.
Used a impact gun to losen on left side, no issues. Right side I broke my socket and bolt is now worn off…
When I get it out one way or the other I neeed to order a new one…

Starting to wonder if this bolt should have been removed at all. Also if this is a Country specific bolt as I cant find any info about a 20cm long subframe bolt for golf mk2.

Attaching a few pictures to try to explain what bolt I´m talking about.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Magnus
