Hi there,
You need to be able to undo the large drive shaft nut. if this is possible as it is extremly tight, normal 1/2'' drive will struggle with it. Jack up car and place stands under body. You have to remove wheel, Brake caliper and support, undo drive nut, remove tie rod end, remove 2 strut mounting bolts , swing stub axle assembly away and with draw spline end from bearing, You will need to carefully lever inner end out of transmission and have a container ready as oil will come out. Revers procedure to re fit, re torque drive shaft nut to specs replace all split pins with new pins, check transmission oil level .
Note loosen drive shaft nut before raising car on stands.
