If you find there is a need to change the Hunts moldseal capacitors (and there probably will be a need to) around the VHF RF sections then be careful to not disturb the other components. Just cut the leads of the hunts capacitor close to the cap and tack in the replacement as close to the original position as you can.
I just solder the new cap to the stubs of the old cap, I dont worry about wrapping the wires in this sort of cramped position.
