Then you will have to loosen the screws that fix the wheel, completely removing the latter and accessing the parts in the rear area of the hub. Here it will be possible to unscrew the screws that secure the hub to the remaining parts of the front suspension, so that the drive shaft is released. Once the wheel has been moved, the old drive shaft boot can be removed so that a new one can be inserted.
