Default Trans won't tilt back

Any reason why it wont tilt further down? as it sits now it dropped about 1" or so when the crossmember was taken off...I have LT's but from what I can tell they are not hanging up on anything...anyone run into this problem?

Do you have poly or solid engine mounts?

they arent solid...from what I can tell they look rubber...the motor was built and has energy bushings and trans mount so I guess it could have poly mounts....I guess im gonna have to pull the intake to get the top bolts

loosen all 6 of your engine cradle bolts...i just took out my 4l60 and with about three foot of extensions was able to do it easily....even have long tube headers..it will let it down another inch and a half
