as above how do i remove the nut that holds 5th gear ie how do i jam the gearbox so it doesnt spin, how can remove it??

 

Suspect you could remove your flywheel.. bolt the clutch and pressure plate onto it.. slip it on the gearbox spline and then place a piece of angle iron (cut about an inch long) or similar in the flywheel teeth and jam it on the casing?

Never tired it.. just a theory..

no that wont work my gearbox is on the car ive only removed the transfer box dont want to remove it!! cheers anyway....

 

Sorry assumed box was out..

Remove cam covers and get on the crank bolt then.

Or remove starter motor and use angle iron to hold flywheel (just not small enough to fit down into box), 6inches long etc..

Just had a quick look through my pics..

This is taking from underneath you can see the hole in the back of the box where the startmotor came out of..
You can just about see the teeth of the flywheel.

Of course you have to remove intercooler and startmotor.. doh..
