Stuck clutch, TJ Wrangler 1997 4 litre
« on: September 07, 2014, 11:08:13 AM »

Two weeks ago; TJ cut out in a mucky bog, got it home found fuel pump wires ripped out, sorted that fired up lovely... went to go laning this week and found the clutch plate appears to be jammed on.

Have tried, rocking on key, strapping to a tree and driving the opposite direction, rear wheels off the deck, 3/4th gear with revs so approx. 30/40 mph, jam on brakes, TFR cleaner and pressure washer whilst prying back tin plate, both with and without drive.

Any other idea's before I have to take the box out, I have inspected the slave and the fork moves freely inside the gearbox.

Defo feel unlucky as plenty of stories of cars laid up for years and freeing off a clutch, two weeks :(

As ever thanks in advance Maf

Drill hole in bell housing to gain access to the bolts.

Have you tried all that with your foot on the clutch?
