Have not had to change a driveshaft yet, but changed a front wheel bearing just over a week ago, a lot of the prep work/unbolting will be the same I'm sure - just jacked the car up and took the wheel off. Not such a Disco Newbie now!

No need to do anything specifically with the air suspension.

You will need to get the ball joint split and undo enough stuff to be able to pull the hub far enough forward to be able to get the drive shaft off the hub. A puller onto the hub is better than a big hammer too. Mark.
