Lookin' at the book of pictures it says place a piece of wire around cluster and using assistance lift out of case ;(


However I guess you would also need to make sure t/box is in neutral to allow the gears to rotate. We can assume you took the shaft out too can't we?

Gearbox sitting on porch @ current. Lifting the actually gear out no worries, it the tab that holds the shaft in is which i cannot remove.

Helpful little person said @ the weekend, just lever the tab off the back of the case, slide the shaft out and life out gear ......... simple.

Its that little tab which has caused the pain so far.
