How the hell do you get to that one bolt on the bell housing that that is facing the opposite direction as the rest?
I have the passenger wheel off, car jacked up and power steering pump up and out. I have to wait to go get a new elbow socket after i broke my one impact rated one (go figure) to get the exhaust the rest of the way off.
But my main problem is I can't even see it! i have 3ft worth of extensions to reach it, but I can't see it to line up on it

Theres a black metal bracket on the end of the transmission closest to the pass side wheel, i think its only 4 bolts holding it on, once u remove that bracket, u should be able to see right in there to that bolt unless ur engine (and cradle) are considerably lower on the driver side than the pass side. just look straight in from the pass side but have the engine / tranny level.

I pulled my engine and tranny both out together and split them, so all I did was use a few extensions.

One motor out, other motor in, I had to take a break and go work to work till 5, then back out to finish bolting together. TOnight/tomorrow attempt to start it.
bull **** bolt was easier once we had that bracket out and then rocked the motor/transmission backwards. It had the power steering pump slightly wedged behind the motor in order to hold it out of the way, making it impossibly difficult to see the bolt.
