There are 6 1/4-28 nuts that need to be released.Look into the hole where the drive was removed and you'll see em'.

ok, i know what your talking about now. should i just loosen a little or remove the nuts completly. what about the other end of the bolts in by the trans. will i need a wrench or they won't spin? thanks
