Jim...Remove the CV's...Put a plastic bag or latex glove over them to keep
the grease out of your clothes.
Remove the little cap inside the flange with an awl or sharp screwdriver
into its edge and pry out. Tap teh new one in...simple as that...Re do the
cv's if you feel the need to get really greasy...
