My transmission seems to be stuck. I've been pulling transmissions on these cars for the better part of 5 years so I'm no noob and I've never come across this problem before. It is about an inch if that away from the block and I can pry it a bit to get it to separate but it doesn't want to budge. I've tried bolting the slave up and pushing on the pedal but still doesn't want to give in.
Seems like my worse nightmare is here and the clutch disk may have fused to the input shaft or somehow one of pressure plate fingers broke and got stuck somewhere not allowing me to get the transmission off. (Trans stopped going into gear that's why I'm pulling it) My arms are completely shot from trying to get this thing off so I'll most likely be fabbing up a tool to get to the pressure plate bolts through the clutch fork hole.
Anyone have any other ideas before I attempt this? I'll post pics and maybe even a video to update this thread.
