Default 02 Durango leaky Trans pan

Hello All, are we sick of winter yet? So, the wife had my durango and slid off the road and ended up in some deep snow and had to be yanked out. In the midst, the transmission oil pan got a pinhole in it causing oil leakage. From looking underneath, do I have to raise the Trans mount or remove the crossmenber to access the rear pan bolts? I believe I'm running a 45RFE. Any help, tips, pointers greatly appreciated. THANKS!!

Shouldn't be too difficult to get the tranny pan off, considering that's how it's drained. Now if you said engine oil pan, that's a different story. Can you post a few pics?
