Special 12 point 36 mm (I think) socket required to remove the nut on the end of the driveshaft. Its torqued pretty high also and you need to remove the staked part that locks it to the shaft. Its a pretty simple job for someone who has done it before. I know somebody here posted some info about the actual job this year.
