Tips on removing trans. bell housing bolts.

[dan2286]

I need some tips on how to get the pain in the a@# bolts out towards the top of the bell housing. I am going to the junkyard tomarow or saturday to pull a transmission and I just want to make sure I have the tools I need. Also, do you think the people will be dumb enough and not notice if I leave the flexplate on the torque converter and maybe the tv cable also, or should I just play it safe and bring some extra cash?

Thanks for the help in advance.

do both. leave 'em on there and if they stop you, play dumb. if all else fails, pay for them.
