My motor was outside the frame, so easy to get to. A torx bit and a selection of 1/4 extensions got it done. If you do the gearbox, it gets harder but not by much. As I was sellting the TT, I let the buyer deal with that. Some models have the motors inside the frame, and the belly pan has to come down for access.

Mine spun freely with the clutch disengaged, just didn't have the behind to pull it in with the clutch engaged. The clicking noise could be as simple as a $5 circuit breaker going crazy, all the way up to who knows.
