Body Damage is Cool
The trick to get the axles out without removing balljoints is to crank the wheel all the way towards the diff and jack up the truck by the lower balljoint to flex the suspension. This gets the spindle as far away from the diff flange as possible and you can just barely squeeze the axle out.
