MAN! You don't have to take off ****! If you position it just right it will come out over the axle and through the wheel well. Just get that splash shield out of the way.

remove the bracket that holds it on the engine block. It should drop from the bottom.
This is from experience on a D series OBD-1

I pull them from the top via the "loosened master cylinder" approach. Never failed me. Not sure what the great debate is all about.

Honda would tell you to remove the axle and pull it out that way. But I would loosen the brake master cylinder and pull it out through there...
