Just going to have the clutch and fly wheel replace on my Ford Galaxy 2.0TDCI. does anybody know whether the driveshafts just unbolts each side or are they actually in the gearbox and need pulling out any help would be great many thanks

Most Fords I've seen and worked on tend to use driveshaft configurations that plug into the gearbox (where a sprung circlip retains them in a groove in the diff), the shafts that unbolt from a flange (which remains in the gearbox meaning you don't lose gearbox oil when you take the driveshafts off and the gearbox out) seem to be mainly a VW thing.
