Steering lower U-joint 200 1991

from FAQ : "With BOTH u-joints sufficiently loosened — per screw method, plus wire brushing and oiling shaft splines — the shaft is moved (maybe "driven") upward to free the lower joint, then swung aside and moved down to free the upper joint. You may need a hammer or air impact hammer to move the lower joint and shaft upwards. Then the shaft and both joints are free to do whatever is needed at the bench."

Anyone with experience on this my question regards "moving the steering shaft upwards and swung away" .... Will that shaft actually move upwards without loosing or removing some other support? I can understand it may move a bit to the side but up? I'm about to start wacking at it after I separate the joints from the splines.
