Looking through the Bentley, I don't see anything about disconnecting the
driveshaft either. I've never seen it in person myself, but it looks like
four bolts hold the drive flange to the drive shaft. This should allow the
tranny to hinge freely on the mounting bolts enough to drop the engine end
down then, no?
