shift coupling (dogbone) replacement

I have an '86 C900 8V, have replaced both the pass side and front engine mounts, and over time, the tendency has been for the gate for fifth gear to be OK in cold weather, or at start up, but the gate for fifth disappears as the engine heats up. It's been hot as hell around here these days and now I cannot find the gate at all, even when the engine and gearbox are completely cold. Looks like the part that needs to be be replaced is old style dogbone (?) coupler, available still from http://www.eeuroparts.com/Parts/PartDetail.php?partCode=7576416. How exactly do I remove and replace that puppy. Neither my Hanes repair manual nor my larger Bentley manual has any details on how do do that job. I'm quite sure the tranny itself is OK, because rest of the gear pattern is fine, including reverse, and when I did still get it to shift into fifth, no noise, no pop-outs, no grinding.
