Power Steering Box Replacement

On my 66 Dart with power steering, I would like some coaching so I don't pound on the wrong pin in the coupling clamp at the steering box. Better safe than sorry!! Thanks....

I'm doing the same thing on a 66 Barracuda, any info helps. This older article seems pretty informative:

there is really only one large roll pin that holds that coupler onto the worm drive. just get a punch (I used a nail punch) and get on the edge of the pin, and tap it all the way out. Then the fun begins when you try to pull it away from the shaft. 2 people needed. one pulling on the steering wheel, the other trying to separate at the coupling.

You mean if I'm doing this, I have to ask my wife to help? OH NO, Not again!

Need some more advice, can't get the steering box out, won't clear between engine and upper "A" frame. Car has a 360 in it, looks like I might have to raise engine for clearance, any suggestions?? Thanks a lot.....
