240Z: FS5W71C Transmission Clutch housing removed
Finally i found some time to go back to work in the garage. unfortunately i wasn’t that successfull. My goal was to completely disassemble the main parts of the 5-speed original transmission to check the gears. As you remember i have already removed the rear extension, so i started by removing all the securing bolts from the clutch housing:
Next i removed the stopper ring on the main shaft bearing as suggested by the SR311 5-speed transmission manual.
Unfortunately i wasn’t able to remove the gear xase for whatever reason. it will move slightly but it’s somehow stuck. tried to hammer with a rubber and copper hammer as suggested by the manual but wasn’t able to remove it without hammering too hard. any suggestions here? i’m thankful for any useful input 🙂
BTW: rear extension is only put back to prevent the gears from damage during work 😉

I would say it blocks in the back at the “Distanzringe” between the back bearing and the “Flansch”.
If you hammer it you will need to have those rings made by a machine shop. You can ask me why I know. 🙂
