Are you able to reach across to the pulley end and turn a ratchet on the crank bolt whilst struggling?
Is the subframe lowered at all... So much easier on a 'Q' :o)

Subject: [Vwdiesel] still with the clutch
I worked on the car for hours tonight. I got the transmission more-or-less in place, but it's not close enough to slip over the flywheel or bolt up. It's also tilted about 30
degrees and I can't get it to turn. I have the whole works shifted as much to the front as I can get it trying to clear the subframe, but it's still not working. Anyone know
the magic geometry? As it is, I'm going to have to burn a vacation day tomorrow to work on it. Already had to rent a car two days :( Driving a subcompact Nissan for
two days will incentivise anyone to fix their VW.
I'm going to call in my big floor jack, which I loaned out months (years?) ago. Hopefully that'll help a little. Outside of that.......
