R50/53 Removing internals from the 6 speed tranny

If the 6 speed Getrag has a similar construction as the 5 speed then yes, you can only get them out by pressing out the shafts. I believe the 6 speed has three instead of two shafts.
I documented rebuilding the 5 speed Getrag step by step in this thread.

Snap ring (have no ears)
And not this?
Circlip (which have ears)
Are the shafts held in like this? (Snap ring on the inside, circlip on the outside)
Posting a picture would really help

Hmm to be honest I have no idea how to get those of within that space. You somehow need to make room for the snap rings to get out of their groove.
Is there any chance that backside (the shiny flat part with the bolt holes) is actually a plate sealed to the gearbox?
Looking at it again, are that very large allan bolts at the end of each shaft? Maybe undo those to get access to the shafts so you can press them out while the bearings stay in position. Than after you can press the bearings from the inside out?
Just a thought
