If you are trying to remove the whole axle housing: Lift the car and set the frame on jackstands as high as you can. Using a large floor jack, raise and support the axle housing while you remove everything bolted to the housing(shocks, brake lines, track bar, upper control arms, etc.)DO NOT UNBOLT THE LOWER CONTROL ARMS YET!!!. Once everything is unbolted and removed, slowly and carefully lower the housing until you can remove the springs by hand. Lastly, unbolt the lower control arms. If you are trying to remove the axleshafts: Look on the ends of the axle housing, you will find 4 bolts or nuts attaching a small plate to the housing. Remove the 4 nuts/bolts, and gently tap on the hub of the axleshaft with a hammer away from the center of the axle. It shouldn't take a whole lot of force to get the bearing and axle to pop out of the housing. If it is being tough, you may need to get a slide hammer with the proper attachment to pull out the axleshafts.
