Getting the Wheeling Fever

Just wondering if there's a way to swap in new axles in the front without having to separate the spindle from the upper/lower control arms? Every time I do that on any car, the ball joint seals get gouged, meaning new joints, and that's just another PITA.

This is on an 85 Gen I.
