Sixto I am lucky in one respect , the silencer is clear, and not in the way on my 260e .But it did say to remove the gearbox support ,and to support the gear box . You have a centre bearing in the propshaft with 2 bolts holding the bracket to the bottom of the car .And all the information i can find is to remove all the propshaft. I am sure there is no need to remove all of it to replace just the front coupling ..Just thought some one had done this very same job.. Thank you for your reply ..
