Once the wheels are off, you start on the wheel side of the axle. just take the castle nut off of the lower ball joint and using a pry bar or a ball joint seperator (autozone 15 bucks rental) pop the ball joint loose so that the hub can swing forward. At that point you can take the axle out on the wheel side.

Next, use a pry bar at the transmission side of the axle to pry it loose and then pull it out with your super manly strength. lather rinse repeat for other side.

if you look at the "92-00 Civic / Del Sol" forum's FAQ archive, there is a good writeup on axle removal and install.
