Removal
1. Remove rear wheel, engine guard from engine / transmission and rear underside panel.
2. Loosen drive shaft from wheel.
-
When doing so, also apply the brakes.
NOTE:
-
As considerable force is needed to move the drive shaft in the teeth of the wheel hub, loosen the drive shaft using a copper drift.
-
With unfavorable tolerances, it may be necessary to push the drive shaft out of the hub using a wheel hub puller (e.g. a Klann or Schrem tool).
-
On the 911 Turbo, a ventilation tube is inserted in the joint on the wheel.
-
To prevent damage to the ventilation pipe when pressing the drive shaft out of the wheel hub, insert a pressure piece, e.g. VW 295A, between
the puller spindle and the drive shaft.
-
At this stage, it is not yet possible to pull the drive shaft out completely.
3. Remove cover from control arm 1 & 5 (unclip).
-
Remove heating pipe.
NOTE:
-
Before removing the right drive shaft, disconnect holder from oil line (M6 screw) on transmission

Pull oil line slightly down when removing and inserting drive shaft.
