1st let me say that I never have this job done by someone who has never done one before. there are spots where the weight of the axle end gets over whelming and can loose fingers and intestines if not careful and familiar to when the weight will be changing. you will need to only do 1 side at a a time and will be supporting the weight with a rollaround jack that you will pull straight out of the machine, there are about 6 bolts that are under the axle end housing that also must come out (as well as the bolts that hold the top portion) , and then the whole she bang can be removed but is heavier than most people should lift in a crouched position, and will shift on the jack as soon as the last stud is pulled free from the housing.
