I agree it is a tight fit--- Try taking 2 guys to do it one sits in the drivers seat and puts slight pressure on the clutch pedal to keep the throwout bearing from dropping off the fork other guy slides the trans into the clutch and maybe adjusting/twisting the input WHILE the trans is in gear(try hi gear its easier to spin the trans) and getting the splines on the input and the clutch disc to line up. Its definately a walk in the park but it will go in its a snug fit... Maybe just a little lube on the end of the input but dont get carried away---- Never tried doing it the way you are doing it cuz everything gets all ****ed around not in a straight line---- Good luck ---Comp 387
