No evo here, just an OZ that's ALL mine! those pics show exactly where to pry...in between the transmission, and axle.
I'll continue tomorrow...getting late and cold now. This is gonna be a serious pain in the ***....

Finally done! That was a serious pain in the a$$ without a lift, and tranny jack! Turned out to be a popped spring on the disc, everything else seemed fine, but I replaced everything anyway.

One thing I'm having trouble with is bleeding the clutch....I'm doing it the same way as brakes (3 slow pumps and hold) and I still have no pedal. WTF is the deal? I had help, and we did it like 20 times...still no clutch.

spindle= hub basically. if you look at the older rwd vehicles that had spindles, it looks like a tapered rod that the rotor and wheel bearings ride on.
also do dredge up a 4 year old thread, ive had my trans out twice for a clutch. first was a ebay clutch.
lift is a must!!first time i had the lift supporting the motor and sued jacks for the tranny. second go round because of where i was, the lift was for the tranny, and jack on teh motor with wood. also, the lift safed me a lot of back pain this go round!!!

Here comes a long dead thread necromancy again so for our ES and OZs we don't have to pry the clutch release bearing off the pressure plate to release the transaxle from the engine? I looked underneath the tranny and there are no service access holes like the Evo's and Ralliarts. So just pry the entire transaxle housing out once bolts are undone?
