Got all the bolts off the toploader im trying to pull out but it won't come out. moves back about 2-3 inches than stops. so I unbolted the plate between the trans and the motor still no go any one got any ideas . I m thinking the input shaft is rusted to the clutch disk. any ideas to get it loose would help.
Is it possible the throwout bearing is stuck? If its gummed up, a little brake parts cleaner might get it loose.
if it was rusted to the disk, it wouldn't move at all. I agree that it's probably the TO bearing stuck on the trans front bearing retainer.
Pilot bushing might have stuck to the input shaft. if you can, unbolt the pressure plate and bring it all out together.
