Philco 46-480 Electronic Restoration

Joseph,

Yes, Rich is right, they are just fine to be left in there.
Also, what I do when I re-stuff these specific ones, I kinda lead-form them, pressing against the walls so the disks, where the leads exit the circle, touch the top of the backelite block (gently so, trying not to crack the potting of the leads): this lower the profile slightly.
Plus the ferrule the screw goes through also raises the block some 3 mm or so above the chassis.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
