Just after a little info please.
I am wanting to change over my rear propshaft to another one i have.
Do i need to remove the propshaft guard at the gearbox end?
I would rather not as its likely to have seized bolts.

Cheers

Don't think the UJs fit through it so probably, yes. The bolts are pretty solid though so spraying them with Plusgas the night before and then giving them some welly should get them off.

Thanks Grrrrrr .
Ive had a crawl under her today and yes, it looks like the donut coupling spider is too big. What a shame.
Sprayed plusgas on all bolts today. Hopefully it will go ok on Friday, weather permitting.
