does anyone know how to install the stb on a gs300, it seems like the bolts that hold down the thing where its supposed to go is welded to a metal ring. i cant figure out how to take the bolts off.

The bolts are just hard to take off...they are NOT welded to the ring...get a breaker bar (or a long handle socket wrench) and put some muscle into it...

When you get it off, take the ring OFF. Then put the STB be on it and bolt it down...do NOT over torque it when you tighten it, otherwise, you'll break the bolts and it's not fun to replace it.
