Hi everyone. After reading such great helpful comments on here decided to join up. Have quick question. I have galaxy mk2 2.3 2001 I have removed hub nut suspension arm ect ect now onto the shaft i have popped it out of gear box but seems to be stuck coming from gearbox to body of car. Is there anyway of getting the driveshaft through the gap given without moving gearbox n engine over? End of shaft is not round n has bolts attached any ideas?
