    Quick "HOW To"..for half shaft change :-

    Jack up /remove tire.......undo and remove the 4 x 17mm lower "A" arm outer end bolts.... and disconnect the Tie rod..
    ....and remove retaining clip from half shaft stub at hub end...where it pokes through hub.

    Grab the hub pull towards you and swing out and to the right..allowing axle stub to be pulled from Hub.
    THEN..remove inner boot..and using finger..dental tool/pick...remove retaining ring from inside lip of the "Green Cup" that the inboard end of half shaft seats in to.

    Then..simply locate new half shaft..reverse process , tighten down boot clamps etc..and bingo

    A couple of hours first time with the right tools..dont forget you'll need a banding tool to secure boot clamps.

    Those price quotes you got are outrageous... !!!
