Transmission Bolts

[BTRs X]

Im going to finish my clutch install tonight when my help gets here. Right now I have all the lines, plugs, driveshafts and crossmember bolts undone. Just to make sure...how many bolts do I have to remove to pull the tranny away from the block...its a 1992 2.3L 5-speed? Thanks.

I can't remember, It's something like 6-8 on a 2.3, one thing that threw me off was the 2.3 has a couple bolts that bolt the opposite way through the engine block and thread into the bell housing, they can be difficult to access and if they're tight, good luck. We ended up have to take the front wheel off and used a really long extension and u joint socket and a breaker bar to loosen it.

Thanks...I'll be all over it in the morning. Need the work truck running again!
