trans removal
trans removal ok so Im trying to get this A4 out of my '93 Z and I cannot get those top bolts out, how do you guys do it, or do you guys have any tricks. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kevin
Extensions are key.
I would also recomend dropping the *** end of the trans down a bit. It will pull the top bellhousing bolts down and you can almost get your whole arm up there to do the wrenching.
Good Luck

Lower down the tranny cross member, have a jack and a block of wood underneath, get a LONG extension and carfully work the bolts out, make sure the flywheel bolts are out too.

A 24" extension and a universal joint did the trick for me. I'm having a hard time getting the middle one on the drivers side though. I guess I'll go buy another universal joint and try them both.

i just used a long pry bar to bend the floorpan up abit and the swivel socket with a 48" extension worked great! had to use some rtv to hold the bolt in the socket to put it back in though. couldn't fit my big *** hand up there!
