The tailshaft is the first thing installed in the case so you will have to completely dismantle the trans to replace the shaft. I would rebuild the original trans if possible. A Ford manual (not chiltons or haynes) will give details how to rebuild.

I saw mentioned a rebuild video & CD for the C6 on this site made by a 25-30 year mechanic. It's a fairly well done product that walks you through disassembly and reassembly, in addition modifications to suit your driving style (extra clutch plate, low ratio gear set). A sheet is also included to make a tool to assist and part number lists for E4OD parts to beef up you C6. If its your first time it really helps to watch someone do it. Try doing a search, if you don't have any luck I'll look for the name when I get home tonight. For the money it was well worth it. The suggestion of the manual is vital also. Good Luck.
