Castings
Lynn I think he means the tin dust shield that sits on top of the casting to cover the roller, there is usually a grease nipple located in the middle to lubricate the roller. Both of mine were still in situ.
Arie you will need to remove them, also you need to take all weight off the centre axle so the hull probably needs to do onto axle stands (or safer use railway sleepers stacked up)
So far Michael R's method is looking the best...... Wish I had access to one when I did mine...... I felt like weeping with frustration but kept at it and it came out in the end.
