To my surprise my job is doing my clutch for me. Does the J30A5 HAVE TO come out the bottom or us it top accessible?

Do you drop the engine and Trans together or separately?

You only need to remove the transmission and it will come out the bottom

You have to remove the H frame, I recently did mine, but it drove for 3 days, and now the gears wont go in while the car is on , gotta do it all over again

you sure you didn't leak a little transmission fluid out when you pulled the axles out of the trans, and just forgot to replace it? I did this once in my 89 hatch back and like an idiot got it stuck in 5th gear. After trying all sorts of stuff I remembered leaking out trans fluid when I pulled the axles filled the trans back up and it shifted like butter!

This isn't a super technical job but it is if you're not mechanically inclined or have help. Don't take this wrongly because I don't mean this in a bad way. If you can't tell what needs to come out and which way it needs to come out, you may need to take it to someone who does.

I work in a shop, it's here with me and my crew...it's just a crazy job. We know what we are doing, and have detailed instructions from Mitchell, was just hoping for a better way for the community than 8 hours labor. I've never done such a complex clutch. I know my limits
