taking the back off a stepper

[John S]

Yes you can take the back off but it has to be in a clean non metallic environment.
Do not remove the rotor.

What about using these potting boxes from Arceurotrade, clearance hole in the bottom for the leads, cable in from one side and soldered / heat shrinked joints inside and super glued on.
