I'm removing the gearbox from my 2 wheel drive Cosworth after the new clutch slipped. I suspect that something went wrong with the new rear crank oil seal because I have oil coming out of the bellhousing so I've set about removing the box myself.

Can I remove the gearbox with the propshaft still slotted into it? This would save draining the gearbox oil and refilling it again.

Do I have to remove the exhaust to get the box out?

Do I undo the bellhousing bolts before the gearbox crossmember?

Do you have to drop the antiroll bar for access? My mate did but I'm not sure it's neccessary

And finally how the bloody hell do you disconnect the clutch cable?

Any help on any of these questions would be appreciated, I've got as far as getting the car on axle stands, disconnecting the prop, removing the starter motor and the wiring and that's it

Thanks,

Paul
