Use a mobile jack to raise the wheel suspension until there is approx. 400 mm between the fender edge and the center of the wheel hub to provide the best accessibility to the wheel hub screws.

Remove:

the 4 screws
the rear wheel hub from the wheel spindle and drive shaft.

NOTE:

Make sure that the drive shaft releases from the rear wheel hub. There must be no axial forces on the drive shaft joints.
