Firmly apply the handbrake, then jack up The front of the car and support it securely on
Axle stands, Remove the wheel. And Extract the split pin from the driveshaft.
Refit at least two road wheel bolts to the
Front hub, and tighten them securely
Unscrew the driveshaft retaining nut, and
Remove the washer. Discard the nut; a new
One must be used on refitting.
Slacken and remove the lower arm ball joint
Clamp nut and bolt, and free the lower arm
From the swivel
Discard the clamp bolt nut; a new one must be used
On refitting.
Carefully pull the swivel hub assembly
Outwards, and withdraw the driveshaft outer
Constant velocity joint from the hub assembly.
lf necessary, the shaft can be tapped out of
The hub using a soft—faced mallet. Support the
Driveshaft by suspending it with wire or string;
Do not allow it to hang under its own weight,
Or the joints may be damaged.
A suitable tool will now be required to
Release the inner end of the driveshaft from
The differential. To release the right-hand
Driveshaft, a flat steel bar with a good chamfer

On one end can be used. The left-hand
Driveshaft may prove more difficult to release,
And a suitable square— or rectangular-section
Bar may be required.
Lever between the driveshaft and the
Differential housing to release the driveshaft
Circle from the differential. Carefully withdraw
The driveshaft from the transmission unit,
Taking great care not to damage the driveshaft
Oil seal, and remove the driveshaft from
Underneath the vehicle
Plug the opening in the differential, to
Prevent further oil loss and dirt ingress.
Do not allow the vehicle to rest on its
Wheels with one or both driveshaft(s)
Removed, as it may damage the wheel bearing
