Steve. Out of interest how does the propshaft come off the box and will you take the box off the bell housing or take it out with the bell housing still attached?

The prop just pulls out the rear of the box.

You can remove the box either way.

I usually remove box and bell housing together.

Took the prop off the flange !! As if it comes out you will lose oil also will remove it with the bell housing

Thanks Steve. I will just pull it off then. I don't mind losing the gearbox oil as I will change it anyway.

dunno bout the T5, but the LT77 has a drain-plug (as in, if you drain it, the workshop floor stays clean(ish))....

Yup T5 is the same. To refill I have a thin bore hose attached to a bottle of oil. Makes it a lot easier.
