Can you turn the crankshaft? I believe it gets locked together until you can turn the crankshaft back. Disco Mikey may be able to provide more info Bodsys Brake Bible
OK the crankshaft is loose of the bare block is on top so i need to separate this from the auto gearbox
the auto box is solid and i did neutral still same no spin
so i need proper idea what to do next
as the gearbox if need service is all done from the front
i don't like to lift the cabin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so please help
once again the engine was seized ......due to oil issues from brother

It is highly unlikely the gearbox has seized at exactly the same time as the engine.
Can you turn the crankshaft at all? The last seized bottom end I had, I had to remove the engine and TC at the same time, and unbolt the TC separatelyMy D3 Build Thread
