I am afraid I’m in over my head…..on a simple U-joint replacement on my stock 1946 Chevrolet Truck, 4spd crash box.

I loosened the bell and pulled it back expecting to find bolts holding the U-Joint to the back of the transmission. Instead, they’re some kind of “clips” that I can’t figure out. What’s going on here? What am I missing?
