You'll need to drop either the gearbox & driveshafts or remove the engine.

I took the engine out cause it went pop 6 weeks after the clutch started slipping. As for removing the spiggot bearing, all you need to do is remove the flywheel and chap it out with a screwdriver & hammer. New one is fitted tapping nicely with a rubber mallet.You'll also need to make a bracket to hold the flywheel still when torquing the plate etc back together.
