3.0 Nissan clutch saga........ Advice needed

Someone on here was on about that, a few months ago with a GQ , might pay to do a search, from what i remember there is a way of turning the box to get it out.

Not much help i know, but hope all goes well.

Axle.

Pull the transfer case off the box.
Remove the exhaust at the turbo.
Remove the drivers side engine mount and you can get the box back far enough to remove the clutch and pressure plate. The box will then drop down. Remove the flywheel and throw it at your nearest enemy and replace it with an exedy solid flywheel conversion.
It is a bit challenging but you can do it. We do them in a day in our workshop but thats with the correct lifting gear. If doing it at home, best of luck as they are heavy and hard to twist when you are lifting them. We use a seat belt strap on a crane through the door as the strap allows the box to twist a bit easier.
Hope this helps

I've removed several of them with the correct gear, ie. heavy duty transmission jack, the box needs to be turned 45 degrees to the right as it comes out otherwise the starter motor locater in the bell housing will foul on the body. As others have said it is a very heavy and awkward box to remove.
