[Type 65 Coupe]

Well a case stretcher was new to me also. Many of the housings have an interferrence fit between the housing bearing retainer and the carrier. In some housings, the "interferrence" is greater (tighter) than others. Of course, mine being the case!
As for the ride along? Too late, the car is on jack stands, engine and transmission out for a new clutch, drained the housing, axels out and removed the cover and bearing caps. Just cannot get the carrier out!
Thanks for the name and contact info, I may need to call for his help if I cannot locate/build the stretcher.
Thanks again.
