The time has finally arrived. Another wet but warm Saturday.
I started at 11.30 and finished at 4.30, so five hours on this stint.
Before I start - this job is SAFETY CRITICAL. 
You should not attempt this job unless you are experienced in dealing with suspension & brakes. It is not suitable for a first foray into DIY mechanicing, so if you are not experienced, let somebody do it who is.First, using Uncle Phils tool.......loosen the wheel nut.
Next jack up and place securely on axle stands. Here there are two under the lower cross tube, and two under the gearbox cross-member.
Next remove the wheel.
I found some casting marks on the gearbox, so here they are for reference......... They are on the nearside bellhousing.
This is the rear of the nearside brake caliper. Access to the top bolt is very tight. The Caliper bolts are 3/4AF.
Here is the socket in place - it fits easier than I expected.
With the two bolts removed, the caliper can be hung out of the way using cable ties.
The split pin which retains the hub nut can be removed through a hole in the splines. I marked the nur with tippex, so that I can refit in the same position, the nut was finger tight. It's important to note how slack the hub bearings are before loosening. The nut is "one and 3/16" inches.
Once the split pin & nut are removed, a rubber mallet can be used to remove the hub.
A bit blurry, but this shows that the washer which fits under the nut is punched so that it can't rotate.
