07' Santa Fe Transmission/transaxle removal
Okay, I'm stuck and a bit confused as to why the transmission and transaxle in my Santa Fe won't come off.. on the transaxle, I have removed the three bolts on top and the three below.. to my knowledge there are only 6 bolts holding this to the transmission. I don't understand what is holding it on at this point, but it won't disengage from the transmission and so I cannot remove this part.
To further confuse me, I have removed the bolts around the transmission bell housing and the 6 bolts from the torque converter inside the bell.. again, it would seem only magic holds the transmission in place... Or is there a bolt behind the transaxle that I can't get to without first removing it.. then again, refer to above issue of magic stuck-transaxle.
Can someone please help me here? What am I missing? Is there some sort of spring or order to disassemble ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.. I'm attempting a trans swap as I had lost 3/4 and intend to rebuild the one I have at a later time.

If someone can tell me how to remove the transaxle or why the F it is sticking, please let me know.
everything is suspended by an engine hoist.
