I was able to remove and service the driveshaft CVs on my 200 this way. I
recall prying slightly on the driveshaft to push it back far enough.
However, removing the center is much easier and the rust will show you
where to put it back on. You could also try shooting in some grease with a
grease needle and see if it quiets down before removing completely.
