Removal
1. Raise the vehicle on a hoist or raise the rear end of the vehicle with a jack. Install safety stands under the frame rails and lower the jack or hoist far
enough to allow the rear axle to drop into the rebound position for working clearance.
2. NOTE: To maintain driveline balance, mark the driveshaft components so they can be reinstalled in their original positions.
Disconnect the driveshaft at the rear axle, and position it aside.
