Mark the driveshat at both ends with chalk or paint. Undo the 4 bolts and pry the driveshaft forward behind the on ujoint cap. It fits tight. Then after clearing the piinoin on the axle pull back and remove it. Reinstall. Make sure vehicle is in neutral when doing this and block wheels in both directions as well as putting on parking brake.
