    Remove stuff.

    Wheel, then axle nut (thread nut on 1 full turn, and smack it with a mallet to break it looose from the hub.) , then cotter pin from ball joint, ball joint nut, get a LONG pry bar and pop the lower ball joint out, swing the whole brake and caliper with the strut to the side and push the cv out the hub and pull from transmission.

    un bolting the sway bar link on that side will give you more play room, so do that too

    On the driverside, it's the tougher side IMO to remove the axle from based on the lack of being able to get behind the inner cv cup. While it's a pricey item, Gearwrench 82248 prybar is the ultimate axle removing tool. I was impressed, my mechanic buddy didn't want to give it back and a few other friends have used it. it's simply a great tool for doing these axles.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
