That would depend on what style of differential you have, H-190 Differential carrier type, with independent suspension, or full axle leaf spring type. The model of car, age or even country of manufacturing, would be of help to answer this question.
Remove driveshaft, remove pinion nut, remove rear cover, remove axles, remove differential. Push pinion out through housing.
The axles are held in place by a "C" clip on the end of the axle in the diff carrier. You have to remove the cover on the center section to get to it. Once the clip is removed, the axle should slide out.
To pull the front differential axles on a Chevrolet Silverado, first, securely lift the vehicle and remove the front wheels. Then, detach the axle nuts and remove the retaining clips if applicable. Next, disconnect the axle shafts from the differential by pulling them out gently; you may need to remove the differential cover for added access. Finally, ensure you have a suitable container to catch any fluid that may leak during the process.
I assume you mean the rear differential because doing the front removes almost all possibility of steering. The axles themselves are not actually welded to lock them together. The rough idea is to remove the differential and weld the axle gears to the spool. This will PERMANENTLY connect the axles and tires together. It is pretty easy to understand after you pull the differential out. You may want to pull out the spool and remove the spyder gears, some do, some don't. The ones that do claim you get a better job because the gears are now unnecessary.
Because both axles are powered. You have what's known as a 6x4 truck.. the driveshaft comes off the transmission tail shaft, and it goes into the interaxle differential pinion. That interaxle differential provides torque to both axles at all times - not just when the interaxle differential lock (sometimes referred to as a 'power divider lock') is engaged. Locking the interaxle differential simply locks it to ensure that outputs to both axles rotate at the same speed.
You have to take the differential cover off and an take clips off the two axles they slide right out
On a rear wheel drive vehicle, the rear axles transfer power from the rear differential to the rear wheels.

Yes, to change the third member (or differential assembly) in a vehicle, you'll typically need to remove the axles. This is necessary to access the differential housing, as the axles are usually connected to the differential and need to be detached to facilitate the removal and installation of the third member. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific procedures and any additional steps that may be required.
A center locking differential is a component in a vehicle's drivetrain that allows for the distribution of power between the front and rear axles. It can be engaged to lock the front and rear axles together, providing increased traction in off-road or slippery conditions by preventing them from rotating at different speeds. This is particularly useful for maintaining control during challenging driving situations, such as mud, snow, or rough terrain. When disengaged, it allows for normal differentiation between the axles, improving handling and maneuverability on regular surfaces.
Differential is attached to the transmission. You can find it by tracking where front wheel axles go in the transmission. The part is the differential.
Some axles have adjusters on the inside that need loosened, others require a spreader to spread the axle assembly enough for removal.
