two methods; one: disconnect the lower ball joint from the wishbone so the entire strut can pivot forward, put your wheel on and give it a swift jerk. two: use a large pry bar and pry against the inside c/v joint and the transmission body. the stub shaft has a small spring ring which needs to collapse in it's groove in order for it to come out. when re-installing it, make sure the stub shaft goes all the way in so the spring ring can expand and home the shaft in place. a word of caution: on some transaxles if you pull both shafts, the carrier could drop so do one shaft at a time or use a tight fitting round stick to hold everything so you can stab the shafts back in without having to fish around for alignment.

Can you remove a transmission on a 2001 Eclipse without removing the right Transaxle?
The car has only one transaxle, AKA transmission, then no, you cannot remove the tranny without removing the tranny. If you mean without removing CV Axle or drive axle or Axle shaft or CV shaft (same thing) then the answer is still no. You cannot remove the transaxle without removing the drive axle/CV shaft.
How do you remove a front axle assembly on an Acura Vigor?
To remove the driver side cv axle: place a large flathead screwdriver between the transaxle housing and the axle. Then place a chisel behind the screwdriver. The order will be: transaxle housing, chisel, flat screwdriver, axle. Then give the chisel a hit or two with a hammer and it should pop out with ease. I'm not sure about the passenger side axle but I think you may have to take off the pillow block that is bolted to the transaxle which the cv axle sits in.

You have to pull the entire axle. Take off the tire and wheel hub. unbolt the tie rod from the wheel hub. unbolt strut assembly from wheel hub. Pull transaxle drain plug to empty as much fluid as possible. Use a pry bar to remove the right side drive shaft from the transaxle. Note that some fluid will still leak, despite having drained the transaxle. use a screwdriver to remove the old seal. Moisten new seal with fresh transaxle fluid prior to installing. Install new seal with a seal installer tool and mallet, by gently tapping it into place. Reinstall axle by following steps in reverse order. Don't forget to replenish transaxle fluid with SPIII fluid!

You have to remove the drive axle to replace the seal- you have to first remove the tire, then the brakes/caliper/rotor, large center axle nut, unbolt the tie rod end, unbolt lower ball joint, push end of axle through hub while pulling hub outward till you can shift the axle out of the hub. Then, use a pry bar between transmission and axle to pop axle out of transmission. Set aside and use a screwdriver to pry the seal out- evenly tap the new seal it with a soft face hammer and reassemble in reverse order. Make sure to tighten the large axle nut to 145* ft pd, torque.....

remove axle hub nut and tie rod to spindle connection. remove sway bar connection to control arm if present. pry/pound/press axle from hub, be careful not to damage threads on axle. Axle should hang loose at this point. Look for any bolts holding axle to trans, but should not be present on this car. Pry on inner part of axle between trans and axle end. Pry hard enough and it will pop out. Pound axle back in from outer end, be careful not to damage the axle and get splines lined up
