       Transfer box - Rear output flange - bolt change problem

       Hello.
       I have been sorting the oil leak and knackered rear prop on my
       '56 88" and have come up against a problem.
       I have a spare transfer box which is donating the rear output
       flange as it is less pitted than the current one, however the
       prop bolts are knackered.
       The problem is that the oil catcher is stopping the bolts from
       being removed.
       So (eventually), how does one move it out of the way without
       destroying it?
       I don't have a press or suchlike.
       Thanks,

       I thought it was just held in place with some circlips?

       It's just one large circlip.

       Cheers chaps, worked it out in the end. A glass of wine helped
       provide some inspiration.  :smilewide:
       A bit of persuasion with some a pair of large screwdrivers
       eventually got it popped off.
       The bit I was referring to is the oil catcher on page 4 of

       It is all going back together now, just need the replacement UJs
       for the prop to arrive.
       On another note can anyone recommend someone who can change the
       pinion bearing on a salisbury diff? I am based in Newbury.
