How To Remove Rear Deck Mach460 Rack?

[COBRyan]

I just finished gutting my mach 460 but I cant seem to figure out how to remove the rack that holds the rear amps in place. I have all the wiring and amps removed, but the amp rack in the trunk is still in place. Anyone have any suggestions or first hand experience? Thanks!

There are through bolts that go through the "rack" (actually the speaker enclosure) and have non-trapped nuts on the top of the stapming that forms the "package tray" under the rear window. If you have tried to get the "rack" out by using a deep well socket then you probably have found that all it does is spin. ;-)

Remove the rear set back and then pop the plastic rivets out that hold the beauty board in...the stamped nuts that have been giving you so much grief are right there around each speaker, should be eight in total. :beer:

Good luck!
