Gearbox bushes

[HRG]

Easy or a tt? Looks like a simple four nut job but is there enough slack to get the bushes in/out without removing linkages etc?

I was going to do mine "just in case" as I'm under there but after doing the diff bushes I'd rather be driving

[DarkMatter]

I'd say they should be very straightforward as, on my car, the holes are slotted so it's just a matter of raising the rear end of the gearbox enough to slide them out. Mind you, I did have the remote control off when I replaced mine, I'm not sure that made any difference though.

[HRG]

Ah, I'll look for slots while I'm under there... That'd make it a five minute job

Compared to the diff bushes it's a 10 minute job. You shouldn't need to do anything other than drop the exhaust and support the box.

Be daft not to do them as the exhaust is off and the diff is floating then
