Im trying to change the rear flexible coupling on my 91 300E. I have
all the bolts removed but im unable to move the drive shaft foward to
extract the disk. Any advise on how to get the disk out?
Thanx

Losen the central bearing and the large nut on the shaft behind the
engine. You have to push the drive shaft forward to get it out of its
bearing in the differential. Sign exact marks at the bottom and on the
shaft to fix everything in exactly the same position.
