Dropping the transmission

Dropping the transmission
Anybody else attempted this? There was a post on super street that shows them just dropping the Trans mount to get access to the top transmission bolts. Would like to try this and leave the subframe/steering rack alone.

^ truth. There really isn't any other efficient way to do this. I've tried just about every option - I'm a tech for Honda.
You CAN let it hang like that, but that's additional stress on your engine mounts you don't want. Nor do you want the engine swinging around after the trans is out and digging into the firewall. Lol.

just lower the sub frame. its easy. i did it with a pnumatic impact gun. little bit by bit on all four main sub frame bolts. remove the two small ones. the fronts have a gap in the thread where you should stop for lowering the subframe. don't turn the steering wheel or push the front wheels from side to side and you will be fine. if you turn the steering wheel more than 360 degrees when its not connected to the rack you can break the clock spring behind the steering wheel hub.
