... no BTDT on the V8, but you can usually get enough clearance to swing the
half shaft free of the drive flange by steering the wheels left or right ...
if that fails it isn't that difficult to remove the lower suspension
locating mechanism so the bottom of the strut swings free ... at that point
there should be no problem getting the inner CVJ out ...
The inner CVJ is usually quite simple to R&R, the circlip that holds the
part of the CVJ that attaches to the half shaft is right at the end of the
shaft ... remove the clip and drive the CVJ off ...
