It helps if you jack up that side and remove the rear wheel. Then you can loosen
the 17mm bolt while kneeling outside the fender. Otherwise you have to lie on
your back underneath the car and reach up.

Some sockets don't allow enough clearance between the bolt and the tranny
case. Every time I install a different tranny I grind off material on the case
where it surrounds the bolt.
