Usually you can get a 1/2 inch socket on a long extension in there. Sometimes the bad news is that the entire engine and all has moved forward and that places the bolts up under the cross member where you cannot get to them. The only solution I know to that is to remove the engine. Hope someone else has a better solution to that.
