Same board as a couple other amps,

RD, Cactus

blew a fet or 2 or 3 lol.

Got all the screws out and cant pull this board out, its like wedged in or something.

and the heatsinks look like they have to be bent up, but if i bend them up not sure if they are going to be able to bend back down.

It won't just slide out with an endcap off?

You've got the screws out of the transistors that screw into the case? If so it should just slide out one side or the other. It doesn't lift out, I don't think

You need to unclip the clips which hold the transistors in. They have a small key-hole in them, pry them out with a screwdriver.

When reinstalling the clips, a hammer works nice.

So i do have to bend them up.

Cool just didn't want to force it.

And it doesn't have screws holding them tech.

Looks like there might be a couple screws holding down the board also.

I just noticed that. Sorry for the bad advice. I had to look harder at the pics (those ampguts pics pretty much sucks) to notice they were actually clips and not screws.

Maybe I need to go get my eyes checked again. I don't know

Insert the screwdriver in the hole and press down on the screwdriver. It will lift up the part of the clip which is secured in the heatsink.
