Trans shaft retaining bolts-stripped em

[dweymer]

holly cow turds batman, that was easy.

I am trying to remove my trans, along with everything else bolted to a junk tub. I managed to strip the 8mm bolts on the shaft retainer(the coupler inside the rear torque tube bellhousing)

Any ideas, other than drilling them out? I am not against a sawzall through the coupler if I could get to it

TIA
