Just remove your axle bolts and lower ball joint. Then pull apart lower ball joint, move the hub to the side and then pop your axle out. Thats the easiest way to do it. Its not hard at all. Good Luck. any questions IM me...

 

yup pretty much straight forward, but remember to not pull on the axel from the end, get something to put between the axel and halfshaft, or axel and tranny to pop it out, youll also have to take out the 17mm on the bottom of the fork where the struts at to get it out.

 

i was taught in school to remove the axle nut and the upper control arm and strut fork, brake line and it should be a done deal....

 

This is how I do it..With the Tranny already drained of fluid

First take off the 32mm axle nut while the car is on the ground..I used a huge led pipe for leverage and lots of wd40..Then jack up the car and put jackstands under it..Then I take off the lower ball joint nut and hit it loose with a hammer....Then I remove the long bolt that holds the shock fork to the control arm..Then tap the axle softly out of the spindle..Then I take a pry bar and pry the axle out of the tranny..

Does not sound like a honda school, the upper A-arm should not come out unless you like wasting time, just remove the lower balljoint from the control arm, take the bolt out of the spindle and once the axle nut is loose just pry it out, should not take more than 5 minutes unless your bolts are siezed.
