I am not sure of your terminology, but use the proper socket to remove the
6 cv bolts at the trans axel. Not the 6 at the hub end.4 bolts hold the hub
on the trailing arm.Remove them. Put a jack under the trailing arm at the
coil spring.When the shock is removed, the spring will let its tension
go.The jack will control this. Lower the jack/trailing arm after the shock
is removed.Maybe tag which end of the spring is up. I dont know if this is
important. Maybe plan on regreasing the cv. I see folks that take this
assembely from a parts vanagon at junkyards often. A quick brake job,cv
job,brake drum,and bearing all in one.This leaves a nice ez to remove
trailing arm,but nobody ever takes one.Just be aware that the spring is
under tension and only held in by the shock, and you will do good.This is
a straight forward repair.
