The driver's side mount is actually pretty "easy" (not
fast). Remove the front and rear mounts (time
consuming, but not technically challenging). Then you
can "tilt" the drivetrain down far enough to clear the
inner fender. You pretty much need to do this to clear
the inner fender when pulling the tranny too.
