[OT] 1990 Jetta, Are you freaking kidding me????!!!

[Jason at ajfcomputing.com (Jason F. Snow)]

There are two brackets, one that is longer and can come off the tranny,
the other (near the linkage) looks like it is part of the tranny housing
that is the one that is in the way.

Raise the tranny and remove the bracket from it.  That's the best way I
can think to get it out of the way.  The alternative is to
drop the entire subframe.
