I tried to access the turbo from underneath as I no longer have a head gasket leak I really didn't want to pull the head again. Yesterday I separated the driveshaft, the passenger axle pulled from the bevel box, the dogbone off, the oil drained engine and tranny, the charge pipe and intake pipe off the turbo, downpipe loose, etc. Was pulled away for another project and came back to it on Sunday.
Today I removed the bolts for the bracket holding the bevelbox, and the drive flange bolt(special tool required). I was down to the four bolts holding the bevelbox to the transmission, but I can't get enough torque on the top two to break them free. They have been locktite coated and feel like they are overtorqued.
Long story short this weeekend was a complete waste of time, I'm going to put the bottom end back together and pull the head instead. What a waste.
One nice thing, last time I pulled the head I bought an extra head gasket, so I've got a new spare here already.
