How Do You Upper Gearbox Bolts

[Hot33r8723]

Gearbox bolts

Take starter solonoid off for the rhs top bolt, dump off for lhs top bolt, for the one right in the middle undo the gearbox mount and let the drop the box as much as you can then get a long ass extension peice get it onto the bolt and rattle gun it off.

What he said. 2 long extensions. Preferably the ones with semi-ball ends so you can get some angle in there.

I have a long extension bar with swivel socket on one end, an 1/2 inch female end for ratchet or gun

Also jack up the front of the motor so it leans upwards, lowering the box and the rear of the box so the bellhousing is flush.

Doing this for the 10th time ATM, 3 x extentions with the box bolted up the motor ( with all the other bolts at least ) and just hanging down, slide extensions along the top of box and rachet from back of box ( shine a torch along top to see bolts ) easy .... yeah with one of those semi-balls on end extension .

jack hammer + oxy set, start at the rear of the car in the centre and work your way to the engine bay, when the car falls apart you can undo the bolts
