I have a 79 Malibu 2dr. small-block v8 with a th350 trans. The old crossmember rotted and snapped in half so I bought a new one for it. The problem is i don't know how to take out the old one. there are bolts but how do i get to the nuts behind them?

there are no nuts, factory used a steel plate that was threaded. Use alot of Blaster on it.
