Did you take off the controller push arm? It's not listed in the general instructions, but if you don't take it off, you can't remove the trans without destroying the clutch.

The controller arm that actuates the clutch. The slave cylinder pushes it. You need to remove it so that the shaft it connects to can rotate enough to free the bearing forks from the throwout bearing. Otherwise the fork will hold the transmission to the clutch plate.

Just remove the one bolt from the controller arm and pull off the arm.

Sorry to say... YOU'RE DOING IT ALL WRONG!

You've unbolted the two halves of the transmission case. That's not where the clutch is. The clutch is BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND THE TRANSMISSION! YOU DIDN"T WANT TO BREAK THE TRANSMISSION CASE OPEN! I'm not so sure you didn't render you're transmission useless.

I'll try to find some instructions. Big "E" for effort, otherwise not so good.
