If you can get a hold of it with an open end wrench, you can spin the other side inside the engine bay. To just pull the trans, you need to pull the muffler, maybe exchangers - it would almost be easier to to the whole shebang.

It can be done......when I was building my house....no room to work on a 914 and needed a clutch....took it to Captain Crusty's....he did the trans only removal on one of the sixer's I had.
Pulled the exhaust, chained up the engine dropped the trans....BUT..."I" have always pulled them and installed them as a unit. |

Use the clutch replacement tech article from Pelican parts. http://www.pelicanparts.com/techarticles/9...ch_replace1.htm
Sorry, I don't know how to hyperlink yet, but I followed this article just last week, and it all went real smoothly. |

I should add...the nut you're talking about by the starter is removed from the engine bay side. Look in the engine bay on the top left side of the engine case with a flashlight and you'll find it. Just don't drop the nut as you loosen it ... I'd have a magnet pick-up tool ready just in case. Just follow the tech article and you can pull the tranny off just fine, leaving the engine in.

ok the damn thing is in. now i need my friend that is 7' tall to come over and hold that figgin nut in place while i try to get the bolt through it.[cause i still have the car 3' in the air to work under it]
had some carnage. dropped the tranny of the jack and broke the shifter rod pad. good thing i had the old one, robbed it off the old and put it on the new old tranny is only gonna be good for parts, grinding 1st and 2nd. |
