S1 X shaft.jpg You need to remove pin No 21 then the X shaft will move back towards the chassis enough to disengage the pipe sleeve, you will then be able to remove it from bush 16 to get the X shaft out of the way. If you are only removing the X shaft to replace the mounts the pipe sleeve & bush are like universal joints & should tilt far enough to be able to replace the mounts without removing the X shaft.
A bit of advice - if the pin is worn never replace it with a bolt it will only sheer when the clutch is pushed in. You need to replace it with the correct hardened pin & you may also need to replace the pipe sleeve No 20
