Windstar Transmission Support

Hi there I am trying to change my TCC solenoid on my 1999 ford windstar but I cant for the life of me take off the transmission support bracket holding the transmission to the transmission mount. http://good-times.webshots.com/photo...04024720xbEJKk

The Website above shows a picture of the support bracket but I cant open the bolts. I have used an impact gun but it just wont open. Has anyone else had trouble opening the 4 bolts holding this bracket in place. Is there any tricks to opening those bolts. I can open anything on the windstar except those 4 bolts. Help me!!!!

Thanks guys

I took a look at the link you posted and I don't see anything special about the bolts you are asking about. Your impact may be like mine and might not have enough power to remove the bolts. I would get a long extension and a long breaker bar and put some power on them.

Regards

Dan

Re: Windstar Transmission Support

Thanks for the respose Dan

Thats just the thing there isnt anything complicated about the bolts, I just cant get them open for some reason. I guess I will have to try a more powerful impact gun but the gun I have has opened every single bolt I have ever needed open except these ones.
