Had to notch the subframe conectors so they would clear the floor pans.
Both the subframe & chassis conectors were from Total Control Products.
However, its position inside the subframe continued to cause problems. After getting the nut on the far side 90% off with the ratchet, the bolt had moved out to such an extent that the back of the ratchet was now trapped against the inside of the subframe in such a position that I couldn't loosen the bolt anymore, nor could I pull the ratchet off the head of the bolt. Even more annoyingly, the tighten/loosen selector lever on the ratchet ended up pressed between the tips of those two bolts, meaning I could only turn the ratchet a single click without hitting them and changing the ratchet's direction. After a minute of single clicking the bolt back in I was able to get enough clearance to remove the ratchet and slap an extension on to get the bolt out the rest of the way.
