Hello everyone! Really need some help on how to remove that top center bolt of the transmission! Have searched all over for it but no one really says how they did it or what they used. So if anyone who has recently removed their transmission could please tell me what tool you used and from where you were able to get to it, right side, leftside, under the car etc it would be greatly appreciated.
coupesallday!

Some have used a wrench and fit their hand between the firewall and the back of the head.
You can also unbolt the motor mounts so that the motor can tilt and move it so that you have better access from underneath through the transmission tunnel. Then you just use a really long extension or a lot of extensions connected together to get at it.
This problem has been discussed in other threads. I know that for a fact.
2-3 ft of wobble and normal extensions with a big impact. You want to be working from around the back of the transmission for good angle and space. Zap it off.

I used a long wrench working from above on the passenger side, pretty tight but doable

if you use about 3 ft of extensions its a straight shot with a impact gun!!
