I tried searching on here and google but apparently it's such an easy thing people don't need explanation but I do :x. If I see it done once I'll be able to do it. Just seems like a pain in the *** to unbolt it from the tranny

I'm thinking I may need to invest in a ratcheting 9/16 wrench. I dropped the tranny t case down and found it easier to get to the nuts
