you have to strip the suspension,not sure on the 205 but I done a 306 not long ago and it wasn`t too bad,remove the large hub nut,35mm socket I think,track rod end and bottom balljoint pinch bolt and knock off/lever down bottom arm to detatch balljoint from hub and the whole hub assy should pull out far enough to leave the whole driveshaft free to remove from the g/box.Not sure on the 205 but some models require the whole shaft to be replaced,good luck
