I think probably the worst thing that could happen right now is that two of the bolts holding transmission to engine, strip the thread of the engine mount holes.
Well maybe not the worst - at least they are two of the lower more accessible holes - but what, if anything, can be done about that!?
I didn't even get to put much force on the wrench, the bolts just spun and pulled out with the last half inch filled with steel mush. Now I'm really screwed! (pun intended, tho no joke)

97 RAM2500 Cummins affair. Big longass lifted biodiesel thing. Too big. Too spendy - got rid of it. Sure could pull some weight though.
