It is possible to press the 5th gear wheel off the layshaft and replace it with the Diesel one but by all accounts you need a pretty beefy press to do it.

I got T boned in my XR4x4 back in 2010, the nearside rear wheel ended up with a funny toe in angle. Looking underneath, you couldn't see anything bent apart from the ARB drop link on that side. For complete peace of mind, I replaced both semi-trailling arms, the beam, diff mount and drop links. It's fine now.
