I did the brake job on my DB990. Had to use a sledgehammer and a lot of muscle on the final drive to break the seal between the gear box casting and the final drive.

You must pull the final drive out straight and level as there is a shaft about one metre long that runs out of the drive into the gear box innards. Also, I can only repeat the importance of wiring down the differential lock pedal fully and not moving the gear selector levers AT ALL while the drive is out. The drive shaft from the final drive mates with a gearwheel inside the gearbox and if you move the gear levers you run the risk of moving this final gear out of alignment ... which then means you can't get the final drive shaft back in. I'm speaking from bitter experience.

As to your hydraulic problem, does your model have a control cable running from the 3pt hitch top link to the hydraulic controls? Mine was broken and caused all sorts of weird hydraulic problems until we replaced the cable and adjusted it to specs.
