2003 eclipse GTS, 5sp standard transmission, Stock V6.
I have removed the transmission with the flywheel for the TOB has seized to the pressure plate. I finally separated it, clean it and replace TOB, flywheel, and clutch kit. Now no matter how I wiggle, position, and shake the transmission, I can't get it in enough to clear the control arm/chassis frame.:lol2::banghead: I have used jack, and motorcycle jack, and am unsuccessful. The shifter is driving me crazy because it always get in the way of things.
Please help - Joe
BTW I have bottle jack supporting the engine, don't matter if I had engine down or up, struggle just as well.:banghead:
