My idea would be to detach the frame, lift it slightly, pull all the
old gasket out and fit the new. This is a shortcut that sounds like
it'll end up 'way too short.
In any case, I hope whatever you decide to do works for you. On the
Spit, I wouldn't hesitate to pull the W/S frame; GT6 may not be so
easy, so I'll understand if you decide to go your own way.
Just MHO.
