Looking at the TIS it says you remove the guibo and there's supposed to be enough room to pull the prop out of the TC.

From what I've read: "notsomuch" I read that people have to mess with front subframe mounts or whatever the dif is attached to in order to make room. My theory of the shorter prop shaft is to make assembly possible with engine and dif already in the car.
