This is not so bad to do. Jack it up put it on jack stands remove the wheel and brake drum to the side you want to remove. Remove the rear cover. Once inside remove the center lock pin (small bolt) then drop the center down. Now push the axle in and a C-Clip should drop out. Now put the center pin and lock pin in place to hold the spiders in and remove the axle.
