    Its pretty straight forward...it takes about 25-30 min for me to get the drive shaft unbolted and out not including the time it takes to get set up. Search r3v and online and you can gain tips/pointers here and there. GL

              Hey "pal" I'm pretty much retarded when it comes to figuring out how to get car shit apart. If I werent so weak the exhaust coming off would be quite easy and I could do this real fast. Just search around.

                  Invest in a Bentley manual, seriously best investment for your e30 period.

                        Unbolt the bolts you can get to on drive shaft, rotate and get other bolts. Makes sure you remove the heat shield cause it made it a lot easier for me when I did mine on my old car. Then go from the differential side and do the same and rotate if needed. Leave car in neutral when you jack it up. I would recomend taking the driveshaft to a shop because you dont want to put it back together and have it misaligned. They will guarentee fitment upon re-installation.

                          I can see how you missed that. It's only been there for three years.

                          Ask stupid questions get told to search, give an old timer an attidude be prepared for a flaming.

                          Can't take it?

                            IF you know there's a DIY ,
                            Why bother flaming, replying, wasting the bandwith and your time ?
                            I would just answer another question efficiently ;)
