Default 1200 Clutch/Driveline

Well guys, got some good advice here already on my newly acquired 1200 about the upper gill assembly. Upon further inspection of the driveline, I found that the clutch/driveline will have to be replaced. It seems that everything from the pilot bearing to the trans coupler is wore out.

I have learned a few things already upon reading up on the clutch assembly parts. I have also read that once the motor mounts are loosened/removed (also wore out), sliding the motor a little forward allows the drive shaft and clutch assembly to be removed more easily. My question is, once the motor is moved far enough forward, should the driveline come out without needing to remove anything else beyond the clutch/driveline parts? Will any of the roll pins have to be driven out on the tranny side to remove the shaft?

This 1200 will be strictly a mowing machine, so I don't need to beef it up beyond OEM, but any advice/links to additional info to on the driveline, would be appreciated, Thanks, TB
