Might sound silly but have you took off the flywheel and clutch housing? I seriously doubt it! |

I suppose the best question at this point would be how many bolts and nuts have you taken off from the back (from the timing cover, past the diff and then to where the primary cover is) then how many across the front (timing cover to primary cover) then how many inside the primary cover (unless you've removed it)?

I was going to suggest turning the whole lot upside down and using a nylon mallet. Isambard Kingdom Brunel said:
