Guys hare is silly question but better to ask than run into problems later.
I'm preparing to remove the engine of my defender 200tdi (1991). Started to remove hoses wires etc. I note that the steering box is only about 4inches away from the engine. Is that enough to slide the engine out or does the steering box also need to come out.
