X2,drop the box, clean it, repack cv's etc,don't drop the motor out from the bottom if you do the motor out job,out the tops easy.
With g/box and t/tube out of the way you can get to the bellhousing bolts by tilting the motor and on reassembly you can retorque the clutch bolts thru the starter motor hole.
Buy or make a flywheel lock, theres other stuff I may missed cause its been a while,good luck.
