Drop the gearbox and replace the clutch/flywheel onto the crank in situ. The 5 speed gearbox is fairly light so not too much of a problem lifting with just a jack. Just remember to check the new clutch once the fork release pin is fitted to check the thrust bearing is connected properly before replacing all the bolts and prop and drive shafts etc.

You will need to remove the release pin on the near side of the gearbox in front of the slave cylinder to enable you to detach the fork/gearbox from the thrust bearing on the clutch. Otherwise the gearbox will not seperate from the clutch.
