If I recall correctly, the drive shafts use the triple square bolts and
the prop shaft is allen head.  But it's good to have a set of the triple
squares around anyway, a set should be under $20 at most FLAPS -
probably described as a 'VW tool' or some such foolishness.

Be sure to mark the center bearing bolt locations so you can put it back
in the same place.
