Well - that wasn't the case for me.  I could hang off my driveshaft with all
the bolts undone and hammering didn't seem like a good way to go as getting
it back in place would take time to line up the drive shaft holes...anyway
point being you may or may not need to undo more that the bolts for the
drive shaft.

Interesting how there seems to be a discrepancy.  Do you think that the
drive shafts that readily drop out once the bolts are removed had already
been removed at some point in their history and that the mounting brackets
and mounting bolts never were retightened?  And why does the Bently suggest
removal of the driveshaft in this manner?

I don't think mine had ever been removed.
