Removing J-type OD from M46 tranny 200

It has been a lot of years, but I had a 240T with the M46 OD that I rebuilt.

To remove the Laycock overdrive unit the first step was to start the car and put the transmission in reverse. At that point you quickly released the clutch which stalled the car. I can not explain the mechanics of what that did to the unit, but it did allow it to be unbolted and removed from the transmission.

From what I remember if you didn't follow that procedure or if you encountered a nonrunning car it was a task of forcefully prying the unit off to make the separation.

I hope you can find additional information and that brute force method isn’t necessary.
