Normally I just stick a big screw driver in between the bellhousing and block and just wedge it out.

Did u get that bolt right at the top of the gearbox near the heater hoses.
That can be a bastard to find sometimes
U need a HUGE extension to get that 1!
Come round and have a look at my gbox to see where all the bolt holes r if ur stuck.

Make sure you are supporting the weight of the gear box completely as you try to slide it off. Any lateral force on the spigot shaft caused by the "hanging" of the gearbox will cause it to bind and not want to move at all.

Trust me I have done a lot of T50 boxes in and out of the car and the W boxes a few times. T50's are very light and easy as pie to remove/fit.

Good luck, and make sure no bolts are still holding it on Laughing

The AE86 engines had a pair of stays on the bottom of the engine block which connected to four bolts on the front side of the engine.

Maybe the metal pole coming out of the gearbox and attached to the thing at the back of the car that makes the wheel turn is still attached and is inhibiting the sliding action Laughing

Sorry, couldn't help it Embarassed

Perhaps you can fix it with fireworks! (Remember that classic Simpsons episode Laughing )

iv heaved and hoe'd to get mine out too with no luck once or twice, once was starter motor left in and the other time was a devious hidden bolt, i undid them and it slid out nice and easy when supported properley. i feel the frustration Laughing cant say i have had one jam on me though. the shifter is the only other item theat could jam it as mentioned.
