I have been able to access all bolts except the one on the very top. The transmission will not lower anymore while engineer mounts are installed. How do I reach the last bolt?

Also what's a good address for me to go and kick the guys @$$ who decided that the top three bolts would be a good place to put a wiring harness mount over the bell housing bolts with a 13 mm nut. Because I want him to understand my pain.

Lots of extensions and a swivel adapter. I've had mine out three times for various reasons and it was pretty easy to do it that way the second and third time. Took me a little bit to perfect the process the first time.

Getting the harness and the nut back on is the difficult part. It helps that I have long arms. I still have to do it by feel though since I can't see it in reach up there at the same time.

 

Use a long extension (36 inch or so) and a swivel and a semi deep 15mm socket. That's what works for me. Yeah the top three are a pain in the ****.

 

Also, If I ever have to take the trans out again, I'm buying a 4 post lift first!
