Press out the wheel spindle. Detach the drive shaft from the hub. Do not damage the drive shaft boot. Use a tensioner band to pull the spring strut backwards.

Remove the screws from the bearing cap for the drive shaft. Pull the drive shaft straight out.

NOTE:

Do not pull the outer part of the shaft. Doing so could damage the axial stops in the joints.
