Shower faucet problem

[shirlock1]

I was dewinterizing today and when I came to the shower I was having problems getting water and noticed that there was some streaming from behind the box that holds the shower faucet. I tried to remove the faucet and got the stems off the faucet but cant seem to get the faucet to come off the box it seems that the upward facing shower outlet is blocking it from coming out of the box. Can anyonehelp. I have a 1999 Dutch Star with a single shower. At this stage I think I will replace the faucet if I can get it off.
Now that I decide to do that is there any improvement that I should consider?
Thanks
Jim
