Question about Dodge D150
On mine, the flywheel is in a grove in the bell housing on the passengers side of the engine. This only let the tranny slide out about 1/4 of an inch while the drivers side was free. I ended up separating the tranny from the bell housing and then rotating the bell housing counter clockwise to get the flywheel out the groove.

The input shaft (on the front of the trans) is inserted into the clutch plate, so the trans has to move straight backward (or the engine has to move straight forward) about two or three inches to separate the two, before either one can move up or down.
Make sure that you can get them to rotate slightly with respect to each other, to make sure that there is not one more bolt somewhere that is still holding them together.
If you are pulling the engine, make sure that you have already removed the radiator, otherwise when you pull the engine forward, it could go too far and smash the radiator.
