i'm still getting things taken off to pull my engine with tranny but two issues arised.
1. when removing the drive shaft bolts, should i keep the car in gear so the drive shaft does not spin? it is a 5 speed. also, i drained my tranny fluid already, so would it still be ok to put the car in gear to keep the drive shaft from spinning when removing the bolts?
2. i was trying to get the clutch cable off the bellhousing. i removed the dust sheild but i can not get the treaded section throught the channel to pop out of the bigger hole. a picture is attached i took with my cell phone. any advice on how to get the cable to go through the channel? i have enough slack but it seems that section of the cable is too big to make it through the channel.
thanks
