Help, Dissasembly of KA transmission not going well....

Well,

 

as the title suggests, I'm in the middle of the KA or 240SX 5 speed upgrade and the thing just will not come apart. these are the things I've done so far:

 

Unbolt the two halfs (at the steel adapter plate)

Remove Front cover

remove all switches and sensors from the casing

removed C clip at main shaft and bearing.

 

what am I missing? the casing separates about 3/4's of an inch and then just stops. I've separated the steel adapter plate from both sides, the tail section is much looser the front bellhousing section is a bit more stubborn. I've tried using a pry bar to apply some gentle persuasion to the bellhousing side to no avail. What am I missing?

 

any tips or tricks?

BAH!

 

I'm an idiot. I took a bit of a break and then went out to attack the trans again....I forgot to remove the main bearing C-clip.

 

you know, as many times as I look at that stupid clip it never dawned on me that it was the source of my frustration.
