JFP, these are great news for the people that would be using the installation tool only once, because the tool looks pricey..

PS: Can't wait to see the pictures that LoneWolfGal will post of her complete and successful journey :-)

They are not cheap, the basic tool is nearly $800, but like Porsche's beautiful RMS tooling, this was designed for the professional market and why LN rents them; the average DIYer would never buy one.

You and me both, Gilles. By the way, I just bought a new 1/2" impact wrench, which will be just the ticket for the motor mounts. It's a SPiCiMOMO, the finest name in Chinese impact wrenches owned by me. For $79 the SPiCiMOMO is a spicy mofo.
