it's near the front passenger tire
get a 3/8th ratchet
and stick it into the square shaped bolt

bad idea actually, most people use a long rachet and turn it slowly, because the metal to metal contact it's easy to stripe the bolt that way.
use a regular size handle and give it a quick blow, one good yank will break it loose

What metal to metal contact are you talking about? Not trying to sound dumb or nothing but I don't see what you're speaking of...

well...the drain and refill was a complete success...thanks to you guys for helping me out...the lug came out with one great big jolt...i used the regular size ratchet. came out like a champ. looks like the person who owned the car before me had atleast 6 1/2 quarts of tranny fluid in before....but now i drained all that crap out and filled it with 4 quarts of Honda ATF...car runs alot better and shifts silky smooth....
thanks again to all that helped me...

The tranny & torque converter have something like 7 or 8 quarts in there, but only 1/3 or 1/2 of it can drain out.
