It's relatively straightforwards although expect everything to be siezed up. As you have the gear box cover off I would uncouple the clutch and brakes pedals and remove the main pedal assembly. I found the spacer was rusted on and needed some pursaasion to free off.

It's so much nicer once it's reassembled with new grease etc. I know some install a grease nipple while to thr shaft for improved maintainability
