How to Replace the Driveshaft on an Alfa Romeo 147?

Model: Alfa Romeo 147 MK 1 - Years 2000-2010
Part: Axle shaft

To replace the driveshaft on an Alfa Romeo 147, lift the car so that the wheel corresponding to the driveshaft to be replaced can be removed from the hub by loosening the bolts. Once the wheel is removed, unscrew the bolts that secure the driveshaft to the hub, moving the hub aside. Then, detach the other end of the driveshaft that connects to the differential: once the driveshaft is free, extract it from its housing and replace it with a new one, remounting all previously removed parts.
