About ready to drop the tranny, but I have to go to my daughter's birthday party. Going slow but it's going.

It aint as bad as it looks.i can do a 2wd in an hour(done one in a half hour once),4wd takes me about hour and 45 minutes,but ive been a mechanic for 20 years.i use all hand tools and my trusty 1/2" impact,ive got 5 air ratchets that ive used maybe 5 times each.

Got the transmission out with transfer case attached. I could definitely see it being a beast going back in that way.
Ran into a major snag though. I can't get the clutch bolts loose. Put enough on them to start rounding them a bit (2). Any suggestions on a way through this?
