Removal (cont'd)
Remove the cotter pin from the lower arm ball ioint
castle nut, and remove the nut.
Install a 12 mm hex nut on the ball joint. Make sure
the hex nut is flush with the ball joint pin end, or the
threaded section of the ball joint pin might be dam-
aged by the special tool.
Use the special tool as shown in section '18 to sepa-
rate the ball joint and lower arm, Be caretul not to
damage the ball joint boot, lf necessary, apply pen-
etrating type lubricant to loosen the ball joint,
Pry out the driveshaft assembly with a pry bar, as
shown, to force the set ring at the driveshaft end
past the groove. Be careful not to damage the oil
seals when prying.

12. Pull on the inboard joint, and remove the driveshaft
from the differential case or bearing support as an
assembly. Do not pull on the driveshaft, the inboardjoint may come apart. Pull the driveshaft straight
out to avoid damaging the differential oil seal or the
intermediate shaft outer seal.
Left driveshaft:
Remove the left driveshaft from the bearing suppon
by tapping on the inboard joint of the driveshaft
with a olastic hammer.
