The bolts holding the caps of both kinds of radius rod restraint have a "slot" for the retaining pin at the top which is normally inside the bell housing. The bolts can be changed using long forceps and going in/getting the threaded portion of the bolt into the hole/dropping it in place. (15 words to describe, a couple of hundred to swear.)

One problem I experienced in this exchange is the slots are not made deep enough on the retaining stud. You try to push the externally inserted stud retaining/anti-turn pin in across both slots and out the other side of the housing - and the slot(s) are not deep enough to let it pass thru.

A grinding wheel in a portable grinder was called into play and deepened the slot which allowed assembly.

Of course you get to do the 15 words/200 swears all over again.

This one of those jobs better done with the bell housing on a bench - if you have the endurance for it. There may be less swear words is removal of the engine/tranny.
