Auto Transmission Removal Procedure

I am having trouble getting to the top two bell housing bolts on my 03 Mach - What is the best way to go about it? Do you come in from the top or bottom to reach these bolts. Exhaust and starter are off and just these two bolts left to go.

Thanks-

Drop the trans crossmember and loosen the motor mounts. That'll let the engine tilt back. Then use a lot of extensions and go from the back. That's how I do it with the manuals.

It's even more fun swiveling the trans just right to get it out when you have long tubes.
