It comes out quiet easily if you remove it compleat with the rear sub frame (which will be rotten as well) 6 bolts, (which will probably break) two in each wheel arch attaching it to the main chassis and two through the boot floor. dont forget to support the rear of the body or to separate the filler neck first.

Good luck Mick.
