Yes Archie, you have discovered one of the many items that were left out of the workshop manual. Fortunately this is a simple step. Remove all of the bolts that connect the intimidate drive shaft (parts manual 4/7/0 #3) from the transmission driveshaft flange (#2). Once disconnected use bailing wire or cord to tie both driveshafts up and away from the transmission. One other note: You will need to jack up the engine appox. 1 1/2 inches to access the bolts that attach the flywheel protector plate to (parts manual 4/1/1#16) the lower section from the bell housing.
