there should be about 8 bolts and nuts size 13/16 you will need a wrench and socked wrench there are also 2 other bolts that are 18 mm after all of those are out the 2 bolts under each door hinge can be a pain to take out if rusted so to save time all i did was bent to plate down only a foot and maneuvered the rack and pinion out of place
