hey guys, i know i've asked this question and recieved a reply on how to, but i am in the process of getting a used driver's side drive shaft from a parts car and i'm doing the install myself. i think it would also help becuase the name of the thread would make it easier for another member to find this info.
I'm asking if soemone can provide me with a step by step (or pretty close to that) walkthrough of how to go about this, and whether i need to get new rings and such. I don't wanna be caught in the middle of the install and need a part.
Thankx guys, all the info you can give is much appreciated

Put yourself in my position - Buy a car noone has heard of or seen in your area, and try to get help fixing it. I don't mean to be such a n00b but be patient and answer any Q's i have and i can relay that info to others who struggle like me

- jack car up.
- take wheel off
- u need 32mm socket to loosen ur transaxle nut.
- remove the 2 strut bolts (17mm i think).
- move the hub around to give yourself room
- then pop the drive shaft out.
easy :roll:

I assume this means you are removing the drive shaft yourself,i am in the process of getting a used driver's side drive shaft from a parts car and i'm doing the install myself.
then surely you can put it back on.
Here's how to do it:
Sorry I couldn't help myself (it's been one of those days)The way to install it, is the opposite way of removing it.

thankx for all the info so far, i have a few more q's
Is there a trick to removing the old shaft from out of the tranny and back in?
Is all the old hardware safe for reuse?
Does the tranny have to be drianed? or is there a trick?
What is the torque on the 32mm bolt? and if there are others?
I have'nt remove a driveshaft before (in any veihicle) so this is why i ask these q's. I also could'nt find any workshop manuals on this either.
