I am trying to replace my front isolater bolt. When i get it on the jack and turn the bolt its like it has a spring to it. I get about 3/4 of a turn and thats it, then it springs back. Do I have to get a wrench on the nut on the bolt on top of the bracket? That nut is not turning though? Thanks for any help.

Do you have to much of the engines weight sitting on the front isolator? I'm trying to think what would cause this and that's the most I could come up with.

Misato, below the bracket the rubber is moving with the bolt, as is the rubber and thin nut on top of the bracket.
