Trying to attach the battery ground cable to the proper bolt on a TR6  
transmission housing while it was in the car was by far the hardest  
thing I've ever done. Facing defeat for something I thought I'd do in  
10 minutes but took me hours and the use of every socket extension and  
trick in the book, was stressful in many ways. My back still isn't the  
same.
