For the selector shaft you probably don't need to remove the valve body but it might help you if you do - or if you get stuck. To loosen the shaft that you can see from the outside of the transmission you need to undo a hex head screw. Here are some pictures of the part I'm talking about.

Here's the outside of the transmission.



Here's a picture of the underside of the transmission with the valve body in place.



And here's a picture of it with the valve body removed



You should be able to reach this screw with the valve body in place but if you get stuck and need more access you'll need to remove the valve body.
