It's got a clip on the end of it so you can attach the end of it to one of the bellhousing-to-engine bolts.

hmm i stuck the clip over a guide pin. The bellhousing had an indentation that matched the clip. i hope its right because theres no way im taking that damn tranny off again. HUGE pita with jackstands and no trans jack. Im all sore from bench pressing and balancing a t56 on a normal jack for 2 hours.

HAHAH! I thought I was the only one dumb enough to try and get that thing in and out by hand!!

That was 4 years ago and I have since sworn to all that is holy that I will by buying some kind of cradle or harness for the Trans if I have to pull it out again.
