Hello, I知 currently working on swapping out my 5.2 engine. However I知 having the hardest time getting all the transmission to engine bolts off. Anyone have advice how I can get off the hard little bit of room real tight bolt on the passenger side? Also any further advice helps this is my first time. Got off the torque converter to drive plate bolts, everything else has been pretty much stripped off except the heads. This one bolt is driving me crazy. Any install tips are welcome as well!

Welcome to the forum.

There is sufficient room w/ the engine / transmission assembly installed in the vehicle.

One option is to yank the engine / transmission as a complete assembly, then reverse the process for installation. That process will eliminate the requirement for supporting the front of the transmission w/ the engine removed.

Another option is to disconnect the transmission cross member and lower the rear of the transmission.

Note that the FSM states to remove the CPS sensor prior to separating the engine / transmission to avoid damaging that part.

Not exactly sure on the problem bolt. Post an image?
