Removal the drive shaft [Toyota Carina T170]

Set the handbrake.
After removing the wheel cap, pull the cotter pin out of the wheel hub nut and loosen the nut with the appropriate wrench head. Loosen the wheel nuts as well.
Raise the vehicle and place the front of the vehicle on stands.
Remove the wheel.
Remove the protective cover at the front of the vehicle.
Drain the oil from the gearbox.
Loosen the nut and use a puller to disconnect the steering rod ball joint from the steering knuckle arm.
On a car with a 2.0L petrol engine, unscrew the shaft flange bolts from the inside of the gearbox. To prevent the shaft from turning, press the brake pedal while unscrewing each nut. Press the shaft flange off the drive flange studs.
Remove the nuts and bolts from the underside of the wishbone and push the wishbone away from the shock absorber strut.
Unscrew the brake caliper from the shock absorber strut and secure it to a piece of wire on the spring coil so that it does not sag on the brake hose.
Remove the brake disc from the wheel hub (pre-mark the relative position of the disk and the hub).
Press the drive shaft out of the wheel hub. This may require a puller, which should be installed in accordance with Figure 175. Tighten the middle bolt until the shaft comes out of the hub. At the same time, wrap the axle cuff with a rag. Now you can pull out the drive shaft on a car with a 2.0 L engine.

On other engines, removing the drive shaft is a little more difficult and also varies depending on whether a manual or automatic transmission is installed:

To remove the left drive shaft with an automatic transmission, place a hammer and wheel wrench as shown in Figure 176 and hit the wrench with your fist until the shaft comes out of the transmission.
For a manual transmission, proceed in the same way, but install the wheel brace as shown in Figure 177.
To remove the right drive shaft, knock the shaft out of the gearbox using a long rod and hammer, as shown in Figure 178, from the inside of the vehicle.
Regardless of how the drive shaft is removed, do not damage the seals or joints.
