The bolt will not tighten, so I either have a messed up bolt, too short of a bolt there... or it's stripped out. Anyone know how I can get myself an extra inch or 2 of clearance past that beam so that I can figure out what I'm working with?

Remove the 2 front bolts of the crossmember, as well remove the rear nuts holding the rear mount and exhaust mount.

This will allow the crossmember to drop forward giving you some clearance. The engine & trannie should stay up with the driver and passenger side mounts keeping it up.

Don't force or twist the crossmember to much, as you could tear your rear mount up.
