Lift the vehicle as high as possible; for this job, it is advisable to use a lift. Start by unscrewing the four bolts behind the driveshaft, as shown in the video, removing it from the vehicle.

Once done, you can remove the propshaft joint and replace it using a flat screwdriver and a large pair of pliers (and a lot of force). As you can see, to unscrew the front part at the bearing, it is best to secure the piece in a vice.

Cut the boot using a large kitchen knife. To extract the bearing, simply "tap" it with a hammer and an intermediate tool, such as a chisel.
