i just did like a week ago........was thinking about taking pics but after getting all greased up......didn't want to grab the cam.....i'll give you a quick rundown of what i remember and i will get my helms later cause its at a friends house......

1.put car up on jackstands, remove front wheels,
2.look at the axle nut, take out the thread or that lil indention they put in, then take off the axle nut with 34mm socket (i think this is right)
3. look under whole spindle should be a castle nut with a cotter pin........remove both and now here comes the tricky part....have a pitman arm puller from autozone (works with our car but haven't seen it work on many others) and remove the spindle from the suspension arms/radius rods
4. from here you should be able to remove the whole half shaft of the axle although you might want to take off the radius rod if neccessary (mine was already off so it made it easy to get to)

if you have more specific questions just say and i'll try to answer it

oh and my payment for info is lets switch cars

if you should have trouble separating the axle from the spindle, use a mallet (softer than harder) and pound center of the hub.
