407 drive shaft removal and bearing refit

[sterion75]

Hi all, gotta call on superior knowledge again. My Indy has today told me he cant
do my front wheel bearings as he hasn't the kit or knowledge for the 407's double wishbone system; mm so now its down to me. Right my question; is there a guide for, or are there any pitfalls to, stripping the suspension enough to remove the drive-shaft N/S to fit a new inner boot and gearbox oil seal plus fitting a new wheel bearing? I am up to the job mechanically but not made the conversion fully yet to 407's so anything I can learn will be much appreciated. Brad

Think Trem's ball joint replacement guide in the 407 section maybe a good place to take a look at!!

didnt remove driveshaft but did undo the nut, all seem's straightforward tho.
