Reply To: Gearbox removal Big6

Kevin,

You do not mention having removed the aluminium plate (456474) which is underneath the diff housing and secured between the engine and gearbox by 2 short and 2 much longer 10mm dia fixings requiring a 17mm A/F spanner/socket.

That said, I would not expect you to get 25mm of movement with that item in place so you may have already tackled it.

Otherwise, I cannot think of any other fixings

Perhaps the top rear of the gearbox casing is fouling on the flywheel/clutch assembly ….?  If so you need to lower the box to get suitable clearance – or remove the flywheel.
