if it's your front axles just get a rebuilt one lot cheaper and easier to do as you just replace the axle. but for dirveshaft pull driveshaft and remove clips holding ujoints in then use a press or hammer and driveu joint out. reinstall using a socket and vise to press the ujoint cap onto joint. repeat procedure for front or rear.
