Hi,
If the pressure plate is stuck on the release bearing, do you have enough access to unbolt the pressure place? If you unbolt it from the flywheel, the pressure plate should come out with the trans.

INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Perform the following:
^ Adjust the shift cable.
^ Adjust the throttle cable.
^ Refill the engine with engine oil.
^ Refill the transaxle with fluid.
^ Refill the radiator and reservoir tank with engine coolant.
^ Place the heater control knob on "HOT" position.
^ Bleed air from the cooling system.
- Start engine and let it run until it warms up. (until the radiator fan operates 3 or 4 times.)
- Turn Off engine. Check the coolant level and add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be removed from the cooling system.
- Put the radiator cap on tightly, then run engine again and check for leaks.
^ Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper, assemble them and then apply grease to prevent corrosion.
^ Inspect for fuel leakage.
- After assembling fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump could run for approximately two seconds and fuel line could be pressurized.
- Repeat this operation two or three times and check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
