So youve had this built all into an au housing?
if not youll have to pay someone to do that. But if all in au housing ready to go its pretty easy, remove spring assemblies, undo top control bolts to stub, undo tailshaft, remove half shafts, undo 3 bolts and its out, reverse the procedure.

crow bar gently or big tyre lever will pop the half shafts out
bolt is right at the bottom of the shock and inside the towers of the car, top lca bolt to stub is pretty clear to see, wont miss it.

yes, undo and move the brake caliper to one side, undo the top and bottom bolts holding the hub upright and carefully leaver the drive shaft between axle and centre housing and with a little force it will pop loose.. pull the shafts out enough to clear the centre..
