I should have asked this question two days ago, but can you pull the transaxle out without disconnecting the right side A-arm on the suspension? I didn't try it that way, I just looked at the clearances and figured I had to allow more room for the axle to move so I unbolted the A-arm from the chassis. The transaxle came right out, but I was curious about how I did it.
After working on a couple of these Hondas, I'm finding them fairly easy to deal with.
