Yup - When you get to this point, replace the pair of OEM M8 x 1.25 bolts on the end of the tranny case with a pair of studs, which are shown in the picture below.

You can then "hang" the bracket on these studs while you sort the other fasteners, instead of needing three hands so to work with the OEM bolts.

Beyond that, mostly a plug and play swap. Use lots of penetrating oil on the other fasteners should this be your first time in.

Thanks - DM
