Default rear 4t60 mount (not dogbone)

I was trying to pull my motor and trans tonight and i'm not sure I got all the bolts to that rear d/* mount. I unscrewed the three 15 mil nuts through the subframe but it seems to be holding on the sub frame there. Are there any more nuts/bolts?

I have all the other mounts disconnected. So there is 4 nuts connecting that rear d/* trans mount to the subframe? I only saw the 3 that you get to through the bottom of the subframe. Where is the last one compared to those?

IIRC, there are 3, 13-mm head bolts holding the rear mount to the trans, and 3, 15-mm head nuts holding the rear mount to the crossmember. Removing all six allows the mount to move a bit while it stays on the crossmember. Unless the mount is bad, it can stay on the crossmember.

Hmmm well I did get those 3 15 mm bolts and I can't find whats keeping me from pulling the engine through the top so it looks like I'm just going to drop the subframe...

OK, motor with trans....should not have to drop the subframe.

Sorry, should have read more carefully...here is the techinfo for pulling motor w/ trans. Maybe something in there you overlooked?

OK i got it. basically the subframe was pushed bach and the trans was getting caught on all the steering crap. So, a buddy crawled under there and got the 3 bolts holding the mount to the trans and it basically came right out. (hes like 5 ft so he fit better lol)

It was pretty easy getting the thing out wasnt'. I thought I was going to have to fight that thing tooth and nail to get it out. Once everything got disconnected, it just pooped itself out.
