I've never tried it on a bus with reduction boxes, but on bay-window buses 
(and beetles) it is an easy job. It takes a bit of wresting (and a knack) to 
get the springplate off the splines without first dismantling the backplate, 
but this saves a lot of time and you don't have to worry about messing up 
the alignment.
