2000 Lesabre 3.8 tranny removal
Any hints on exactly how to get to that one tranny to engine bolt that is heading the opposite direction as compared to all the others? Bearcat of a job....any help would be hugely appreciated!!! I'm not even sure exactly where it is since a visual is impossible. Thinking about removing the exhaust crossover etc. to maybe get a peek.

Maybe a "starter" wrench would work? They have a curved handle to get those starter bolts on top and 2 sizes, actually work quite well. Also the last tranny I changed, left the case in place and changed the internals. Also replaced main inner wall bearing. Good thing I did it that way, loose shift parts in replacement (junkyard thing).
Adjusted linkage and off to Ft. indiantown Gap, PA same morning. Ran strong, no trouble at all. Changed gear ratios but was all good, gears a bit higher which made for lower RPM crusing on turnpikes. Can't recall if car was a 4 or 5 speed now, '84 Dodge Daytona Turbo Z....
