300 tdi Front Propshaft

Help!

Following a failure of the front prop UJ, i've manage to replace both UJ's and am about to refit the shaft.

BUT.  The bolts attaching the shaft to the transfer box need replacing, but there's not enough space to remove them, they are fitted from the back of the flange.  
Anyone an idea how these are replaced?
is it a case of unbolting the flange and then replacing?

Yes

Range Rover Blues:
There are bodges but that's the gist of it yes.  Either file a flat on teh t-box casing :shock:
saw them off and refit the other way round :?
or do it properly and remove the flange, get oil on the drive and really wish you had something else to do that weekend :lol:
