Hello. I'm trying to remove the lower control arm on the driver's side of a 2005 Stratus, 2.4. The front attaching bolt will not come all the way out because it bumps into the transmission pan. Has anyone dealt with this and know of any way to resolve it short of removing the transmission pan? Thanks.

 

RESOLVED - I got the bolt out. I unbolted the front motor mount and that allowed me to lift the engine enough to get the clearance I needed.
