Alex, I usually just cut the can off right above the step, this leaves the Phenolic intact, then I drill some very tiny holes near each leg for the + leg of the new cap to go through, tie them all together on top and drill one more hole for the ground wire to pass through, glue the can back on with JB weld.

If the can is Hacksaw accessible you can do this without even removing it from the chassis, you do have to be careful not to bust the Phenolic mounting wafers when you do it that way.

Sometimes you can't get all 3 or 4 new caps inside the can, in that case I just put the remaining one under the chassis connected to the lugs.
