Has anyone ever split apart a Supra/SC steering rack?

We are putting a Supra steering rack into a different chassis, and need to twist the tube that has the two valve inlets 180 degrees.

 

Has anyone ever split Supra or SC steering rack fully apart, including splitting off the steel piston housing from the aluminum pinion housing? I believe that this is more than what you need to do when rebuilding these racks.

 

Is the steel housing just pushed over the aluminum body by using heat? If so, what sort of heat is needed and what sort of method is best for releasing the steel housing from the aluminum body?
