Looking for Rear propeller/drive shaft replacement tips
 
Hello All

I am going to rent a hoist next week (We have a local DIY shop that rents out hoists) to replace my rear propeller/drive shaft on a 2013 ACURA RDX 3.5L
Has anyone here done this before? How long should I budget as I am trying to not overbook the length of time I am renting the hoist?
Are any special tools needed?

Thank you
Scott

We did it yesterday and it took about 30 minutes, very easy. The shaft goes right down the center, nothing in the way other than a couple of safety loops to contain a roque shaft. It actually could be done in the driveway but the hoist made is so fast and simple.
