Waiting for the engine hoist....... Monday or Tuesday !!!!!!

Listen guys the drivers side drive shaft does it just pop out ...is it just a clip in a resess or is their a pin before disconnecting....tryed today to hammer it out and its tight , got the passengers off that was an easy six bolts.

Also bolts for the btm end and head bolts etc - is there a place in the forum with the torques or electronic download of the gtr33 spec.
Cheers Den....

Drive shaft - pop the front diff cover and lever it out with a big screwdriver/pry bar.
