Do you really have to support the tranny and drop the mount and crossmember to get to the nuts which are all on the forward side?
Did I mention the PO threw in a set of valve adjustment wrenches?

On my '81 nothing needs to be removed and the balancing disc slides back after you've removed the bolts. Do you have the rear wheels elevated with the transmission in Neutral? There's an opening on the passenger side, and it's just a matter of spinning the shaft until the bolt is easy to access with an Allen socket on one side of the disc and a wrench on the other side.
