Default Drive Shaft Question?

All of the shop manuals instruct you to remove the entire exhaust system in order to remove the drive shaft. Is this really necessary? It looks like I can get away with only removing the cat and rear "Y". Thanks for any help.

You should be able to get away with just that. Last time I had the driveshaft out, I didn't have to pull down the mufflers or front Y.

I drop mine from the cat back to the mufflers just becuase it is so damn easy to remove as one large piece. :yesnod: Takes all of 3 minutes.
