There are four 13mm bolts that hold the tranny to the final drive, 2 on each side. I was surprised at how easy it was to get to and tighten them. On the drivers side the lowest bolt is right near but behind and above where the atf filler tube attaches. The top bolt on this side is not really visible but you can reach your hand up and find the bolt. The other side is just the opposite and easier to find once you have done one side. Also, the location of the bolts can be seen in the casting of the transmission, at each bolt there is a slight protrusion in the aluminum housing. In the Bentley you can see the bolts in the Automatic Transmission section Page 18 in figure 10-1.
