HA
So I know I'm hurting but jesus this thing was heavy with the converter in it.
after a "...son of a bitch" moment. I got the trans up in the tunnel and bolted to the engine. I bought a 2 foot 3/8 extension and 15mm swivel socket. What a world of difference getting to those bell housing bolts. I should have hammered part of the tunnel seams down a bit for more room but its in there.
Quick question though, why do I have only 2 reg bolts and the rest are studs when I only need 3 studs. I might swap them out for reg bolts.
One at the top center for the vents
One at the top right for the trans dip stick
One at the top left for the fuel/evap lines
